We are in the last week of sharing bereavement stories and bringing awareness to the impact of Childhood Cancer. Today on the Lighthouse Podcast, Chris & Christy are talking with Courtney Mount. Courtney has been married to David for 32 years and together they have 9 kids and 6 grandkids! Their youngest daughter battled cancer for a year and was fully healed when she entered Heaven in 2020.
On the episode today, Courtney walks us through the days and weeks of testing, waiting, symptoms, and diagnosis. She also explains the hard journey of treatment and hospice care. When you hear "your child has cancer" your brain goes foggy and nothing really sinks in. However, through it all, Courtney knew that the Lord was with them. The Lord gave them the peace that transcends all understanding. He also placed people in their path to provide encouragement and community. In closing, Courtney shared about a new children's book that she has written to help families walk their children through a terminal illness. You can learn more about the book on her Facebook community - "Millie Finds her Miracle."
In the opener, Chris & Christy mentioned our one-day retreats in Dallas/Fort Worth, Texas, and Richmond, Virginia. If you would like more information on the regional retreats, follow this link.
