Widow Fire
Ep 4 - Finding Strength When Life Falls Apart: New Baby, Terminal Illness, and Moving Forward
Welcome to the final installment of our story. Casey recounts the harrowing days spent navigating the complexities of the NICU, recovering from a traumatic birth, and supporting her husband through experimental treatments—all while holding her young family together far from home. During this challenging time, all three—Casey, Georgia, and Joel—found themselves as patients at Duke, navigating medical appointments and heartbreak together. With courage and unflinching honesty, Casey opens up about the unimaginable stress, the small moments of joy amidst devastation, and the support that helped her survive her darkest days. This story is not only about grief, but also about resilience, hope, and the fierce spark that keeps us moving forward even after life’s greatest losses. Whether you’re a young widow, a supporter, or someone navigating your own grief, this episode serves as a testament to healing, love, and the fire within us all.
