While We're Waiting® - Hope After Child Loss Bonus 84 | Not Missing A Thing
Sixteen years ago today, Hannah took her ACT test. She had just returned from her "Grandma & Grandpa" Camp week, and was pretty worn out, but she was adamant about taking that test. She had just completed her sophomore year of high school, and planned to take it several times over the next couple of years, hopefully increasing her score each time so she could get lots of college scholarships. She didn't feel well that day, and she still struggled with the "falling out of her chair" sensation she'd had ever since completing her radiation treatments, but she did it! At that time, we couldn't know that Hannah's ACT score was not going to matter. We were operating under the assumption that she would complete her treatments over the next year and start college in the fall of 2010.
Thank you for joining me for another bonus episode of the While We're Waiting podcast in this year-long series in which I share our family’s experiences as our teenage daughter Hannah battled glioblastoma brain cancer from February 2008 through February 2009. My desire is to process through the events of those twelve months with the perspective that 16 years has brought … and point listeners to hope in Jesus along the way.
