The Face of a Miracle: A Mother, a Son, and the Journey of Life and Faith That Lies in All of Us

Jodi Sampson was a typical girl growing up in a small community by the ocean. She dreamed of falling in love and a life full of good health, great times, and lots of love. Everything seemed to be on track when she married her high school sweetheart. She had some pregnancy troubles, but she hung onto her faith and had two beautiful daughters.

But her sense of normalcy vanished when her brother died unexpectedly during her third pregnancy. Despite high levels of stress, she didn’t miscarry. She knew from early on, then, that this child, a son she named Michael Francis, was going to be a fighter—a trait that became a double blessing when he was diagnosed with an aggressive brain tumor while still a toddler. Soon, Jodi’s own health was threatened, too, but she relied on exercise, nutrition, and family to help her cope.

Join Jodi as she proves that never giving up and relying on faith can lead to The Face of a Miracle.
