I’m pleased today to introduce you to my friends Joey and Donna Sorters.  Our paths crossed several years ago when we worked in the same school district together … but at the time, we never dreamed we would walk very similar journeys with our children seven years apart.  In the first half of this two-part episode, Joey and Donna share the story of their remarkable son Jarren, who went to Heaven at the age of 15 after a ferocious battle with cancer.  His motto was “If you get knocked down 7 times, you get up 8”, and he had plenty of opportunity to live that out throughout his journey.  That determined spirit and competitive nature served him well, as he faced setback after setback with a positive attitude.  Listen in and be inspired …
