Sheryl Blanksby moved to Australia from the Philippines when she was a young woman, in search of a better life. In this episode, she shares the harrowing journey of her baby boy Thomas being diagnosed with cancer and making the decision to not proceed with treatment - choosing quality of life over quantity. This is her journey of unimaginable loss, Facebook support groups, and finding strength from her Christian faith; and ultimately, how her grief helped her to find her purpose in her life.
