How would you find strength after a near-death experience? 

In this episode, I am grateful to be joined by Sadie and Corbin Raymond. Corbin Raymond of Boscawen, NH, was seriously injured in a car accident on July 4, 2018. Corbin's injuries were so severe that doctors told his family to say their goodbyes. With the odds against him, Corbin's likelihood of survival was slim. 

His mom, Sadie, didn't believe the doctor's prognosis, and though scared and in a state of shock, she knew that Corbin would survive. When he was airlifted to a Boston hospital, experts advised her that the damage to Corbin's brain would prevent him from living a normal life. 

For 121 Days, Corbin fought while Sadie and the Raymond family sat by his side, waiting for the Corbin they knew and loved to return. Long days and even longer nights passed with little progress and little hope. Doctors expressed the reality of Corbin's chances of survival. But his mom never stopped believing that the son she knew would return.

In today's episode, we go deep and talk openly + candidly about what it was like to see your son with a lifeless body. Learn what kept Sadie going and kept Corbin fighting in this gripping tale of hope, faith, and miracles.

Later, Sadie dives into the inspiration behind her book, 121 Days. At first, Sadie wasn't ready to relive the pain of her son's accident. However, she decided to share Corbin's story of positivity and determination. Tune in as we talk about the importance of hope and we find out more about the future for Corbin and Sadie.
