Join me this week as my friend Timothy Valverde and I speak on the challenging decisions we face as parents. Tim's journey began in 2018 when his son, Hunt, was diagnosed with bilateral retinoblastoma. This devastating news turned their lives upside down. Through faith, perseverance, and the support of loved ones, they navigated chemotherapy and difficult decisions, including the recent enucleation of Hunt’s eye. The emotional toll of a child's cancer diagnosis is immense, compounded by the fear of relapse. Tim shares how their perspective has evolved, turning anger into a powerful motivation to inspire and educate others. We discuss the importance of counseling and community support for both parents and children, emphasizing the need for a safe space for emotional healing. Through candid conversations, we aim to provide hope and insight to families facing similar challenges, reminding them that they are not alone on this difficult journey.
