Doris Lew shares her journey through chronic kidney disease and daily dialysis as a wife, mother, and teacher. She describes her experience of waiting, and how multiple organ donors fell through. Doris encourages us that our circumstances never define God's love for us and how doubt actually builds our faith, all the while affording us the opportunity to come to know and understand that no matter how we feel, God is good, God is wise, and we are never forgotten.
