#7 Finding the Joy Through the Pain with Cancer Survivor Merhawit and her Husband Aron

When couples say their vows at the altar, "through sickness and in health," you never really imagine that the sickness would come so soon.

Married couple Aron and Merhawit were caught completely off guard when Merhawit was given a cancer diagnosis while she was pregnant, and while Aron was in medical school.

Despite the heart-breaking, earth-shattering news, painful treatments, and hidden tears, this couple managed to find the silver lining in their adversity. In fact, they believe experiencing adversity in life is crucial to our growth and development as humans...just like it is for lobsters! (Tune in to hear the lobster analogy!)

Aron and Merhawit have a heartwarming perspective on the meaning of life after all that they've gone through.
