Episode 71: It's A Marathon, Not A Sprint: Kristen (reair)

This week we are re-airing the episode featuring Kristen. Kristen’s story is one of fear, patience, endurance, love, and hope.  It’s also another example of how the mental health battle is a journey—more of a marathon than a sprint.  Kristen and her husband have gone to great lengths to help their son with his mental illness.  While Kristen’s son’s battle started when he was still in high school, Kristen gives insight into parenting an adult child with a mental illness. You will no doubt be both impacted and encouraged by their story and journey.
