Though our faith was shaken and put under trial, our knowledge of God strengthened us to know how to process our situation and how to live through it. Here are 3 truths Eunice and I clung to during our baby’s time in the hospital: *This is a reflection of our NICU experience, you can find more on our adventure in PART 1, PART 2, & PART 3.
