When their baby was born with severe microcephaly, Barbara and her husband were devastated but determined to nurture and love their daughter until she was no longer with them. After five operations and serious complications, doctors were completely baffled. Although multi-handicapped, she was still alive! As these parents became believers, God showed them His plan. They began a Hearts in Motion ministry with Joni and Friends. Barbara shares the miracles, lessons and encouragement that will help parents navigate through emotional and practical realities.
