About this Episode
Today I get to introduce you to Katie Bamberg and give you a glimpse into her brave fight for joy as she has faced her husband Pete's terminal brain cancer diagnosis. When a diagnosis like this comes, it doesn’t just affect the person who receives the horrible news…it affects the whole family. And that is certainly the case for this special family.
Listen in as Katie shares a little bit about how they have learned to fight for joy as a family in the midst of Pete fighting for his life. How they have leaned into community for support and help, and have learned to keep fully living, even in a constant state of anticipatory grief with his scans, and even when Pete faced a second diagnosis of colon cancer.
Even if you are walking through something completely different, I think you’ll be encouraged by what Katie has to share about finding joy as a support person for her amazing husband, but also as a family unit during difficult times. And, with each miraculous year that God gives Pete, leaning into hope - and finding things to be grateful for.
