What do you do when your greatest fear becomes your daily reality? Robert and Kelly Canfield return to the podcast to share the next chapter of their journey with Pompe disease—the moment they realized their daughters would also face this lifelong battle.

In this episode, Austin Gardner talks with the Canfields about:

• The Physical Toll: The reality of muscle biopsies and ongoing infusions.
• The Emotional Struggle: Dealing with envy and "why them and not me?" when seeing others on the mission field.
• The Redirected Path: How God traded their dream of living overseas for a powerful ministry of "Taking the Light" to others in the midst of suffering.
• A Message for Caretakers: Robert shares a direct word of hope for those feeling the weight of caring for a sick spouse or child.

"Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life"—even in the valley of the shadow of death.
