When Ramona Smiles - Holding Other's Hand

Sharon Stephenson and Dr. Deb Harrell Season 1 Episode 7

Losing a child and then losing a second child shatters life and the reason for existing. How could anyone find strength to heal from such devastating loss? In today’s episode we sit in with Ramona as she shares how she found peace and healing from the loss of two of her three children, and now her husband of 63 years.

She would admit that at the age of 84 she may not hear or write very well, but what she can do is be present with other’s pain. As Ramona shares her deep faith, we are touched deeply by her smile and transforming words that provides hope and encouragement. 

As you listen in today, our heart is that you will feel Ramona holding your hand as you experience the hope she has found.
