In general more suffering tends to nudge people away from a drab earthly existence and towards God. That’s nothing new. Even the bible says so.
That’s what I think is happening with my daughter.
The more she understands about her own brain damage, the more grateful she is that it wasn’t worse. She’s also much more grateful for me. She’s doing well in college, and she sees lots of special needs kids that can’t handle college at all.
