Summary

SummaryI grew up dreaming of the NBA—🏀 my whole identity. As a senior, I had a scholarship and an appointment to the Air Force Academy, until one Christmas Eve my heart gave out. After days in critical care at Bryan Hospital in Lincoln, Nebraska, I learned I’d had a massive heart attack—and shortly after, a biopsy revealed limb-girdle muscular dystrophy. Suddenly my plans, my future, even walking down the aisle with my daughter felt lost. In that wilderness of uncertainty, I found more than medical answers—I found Jesus. At Berean Church, Brian Clark’s words pierced my heart: grace is greater than my suffering. Now, though my body weakens, God’s strength carries me. 🙏❤️‍🩹
