Laura was alone when she received the news: She had metastatic vulvar cancer. Having worked in the medical field for more than ten years, she knew the word metastatic was not good. The scariest part about the diagnosis, however, was going to be telling her children. Before Laura did that, she called her boyfriend, Lyle. Then, she texted each of her children and told them she needed to talk to them at home. All she could think about was what she was going to say, and how she was going to say it. How could she share this news without it crushing their spirits? Cancer also tested Lauras faith in the Lord, and she found herself wondering, How can He keep allowing things like this to happen in my life? What am I doing wrong? To answer that question, she read and reread the book of Job. He didnt question God when he was in the midst of losing everything. It was in that moment that a peace washed over her, and she was ashamed to even entertain the question of Why? Join Laura as she battles a life-changing diagnosis and learns how to confront it with a positive outlook and thankful heart for all of Gods blessings in Surviving the Storm. Laura L. Torres reveals how her faith helped her navigate challenges and obstacles after being diagnosed with a rare form of cancer. She currently resides in Wisconsin with her very large and loving family. Laura continues to be active with local outreach programs through her church and in her community.
