In this episode, we hear from a young university student named Diana.
Diana shares her experience with the sudden death of her father, John,
when she was just 19 years old.
She walks us through her story of loss, from the first overwhelming
days of the “after,” to where she stands today, nearly two and a half
years onward.
In the wake of his passing, Diana shares what she has learned about
forgiveness, friendship, the strength that can stem from community,
and ultimately, herself.
Hailing from the West Coast of the United States, Diana attends
college with the goal of becoming a pediatric trauma nurse. One day,
she plans to put her skills to use helping youth on the frontlines of
the global refugee crisis.
She loves all things outdoors, and is still inspired today by her
father’s resilient spirit, and quiet, loving nature.
