“He was right in front of me, and I was trying to give Him a hug” Gavin explained. “He brought his light down.”
Gavin Pierson was a healthy, energetic child until sudden changes led to the discovery of a mass in his brain. In the hospital, his parents Steve and Nicole felt helpless and fearful of the unknown journey ahead. Time stood still as Gavin’s arm slowly stretched out, reaching for something. His account of what happened would be the driving force needed to save his life.
“God told me – Gavin, please be strong and brave.”
When standard treatment failed, Gavin courageously began brain surgeries to control the relentless tumor growing in his brain. After five craniotomies, it was apparent there was no cure for his disease. He was dying. Despite a dismal prognosis, Gavin’s faith persisted as he told his parents “I’m going to make it, you just have to believe.” Gavin’s resilience and strength pushed his medical team to find a cure.
This inspiring memoir is a symbol of hope in the midst of fear.
