When Al Kresta - founder of Ave Maria Radio and friend of the Dominican Sisters of Mary, Mother of the Eucharist - fell ill with an infection, one of his reporters stepped in to fill the gap during Kresta’s six month absence. That six-month assignment was the beginning of Nick Thomm’s 12-year career as Kresta’s producer.
In this documentary, Kresta and other contributors recount Thomm’s brain tumor diagnosis at the age of twenty-seven, and how he turned to his faith to carry him through the following fifteen years of trials.
What many would consider to be a devastating tragedy, Nick accepted with complete trust in the Lord. His wife Jennifer was by his side through chemotherapy, multiple surgeries, and eventually the loss of his voice and mobility. Their story brings to light the intersection of marriage, suffering, and loss.
If you're interested in reading more about Nick check out the website Jen made: oceanoftrust.com/

@@forthefunofit3230 His prayers are not orders or commands. Only God knows why some lives are taken, some are meant to suffer, and some are healed. I encourage you to research Catholicism and see the value in our suffering. This is the only true church that will teach you thoroughly about evil, suffering, and the nature of this world.

I am a nonreligious atheist. I would never seek to impose my beliefs regarding how this man and his family should live and die. I respectfully ask that those of you who are religious return the favor when someone chooses to utilize a physician's help to die to avoid a terrible death. Perhaps you can better accept it by thinking of it as God's will also. Peace an happiness to all.

I’m a devout Christian, but I believe God gives us the knowledge and ability to choose for ourselves regarding many aspects of our lives, including our deaths. I’m a nurse, and I’ve also survived advanced cancer - and if I were facing an agonizing death, I can’t believe that God would begrudge me choosing my time and way of dying. You’re 100% correct - we should respect one another’s viewpoints about this; we don’t know how we’ll truly feel about this unless we’re facing it ourselves. Peace to you as well, Shawn.

MY faith is inextricably linked to what I think about this assisted suicide (although it's not made clear that's what it was). I stand FLATFOOTEd upon the TRUTH: My condolences to the family, but this is against God,as SUICIDE. Period. That's not my opinion, which actually means NOTHING, that's the Word of God. ALL of mankind s souls, whether: atheist, agnostic, Catholic, Muslim, Christian, etc..,or NOT, belongs to God!!! Therefore, we, as mere created beings do not have the RIGHT to destroy our lives! I write this in love, not condemnation. The truth should never be swayed by this year's form and fashion.

@@itoo3654 I respectfully submit that whether there is a God is your opinion. We all get to decide for ourselves whether to believe. Please understand that when you say the Word of God is truth, you are expressing an opinion not a fact. What you believe is not more important than what I believe simply because you invoke God. The Bible was written by men and compiled by men. To me it is a misogynistic, brutal, violent book typical of the times in which it was written. You have the opinion that it is special. My opinion is different from yours. We have no chance at understanding each other unless we at least agree on what is fact and what is opinion.

@@kathleensmith1282 As a Christian, God certainly doesn’t begrudge us anything… that’s called Free Will. But He gave us His law to obey to receive His Life… and His law does not include deciding when to take our own. It’s Christianity 101 that Christ died *not* His “time and way of dying” but as the Father willed… And Christianity 504 that He showed us how to suffer and die and offer our sufferings to God, for the redemption of others. Yes, we too can participate in His glorious redemption of mankind through our sufferings. But protestant Christianity lost that awareness when it cropped up 500 years ago. Just some food for thought and prayer.

Dear non-religious atheist… what standards do yo have regarding the taking of another human life? How do you justify against it? What is the basis? As a N-R A, you have no standards of living imposed on you, of life… so your beliefs are basically meaningless regarding imposing them on another…because the belief that it is wrong to take a life (another’s or your own) is basically imposed on you… I think humanity basically falls apart without God’s law…and I think that is only because He is real…whether we come at this philosophically or scientifically (I’ve got plenty of scientist pals who study the depths of the universe and it imposes on them the reality of a Divine Architect, believe it or not.) I’m not imposing this on you but hoping you’ll rethink this position because, philosophically, scientifically, your position ultimately falls apart… imposing a question on your soul, if you will :) Peace and happiness to you.

My wife died peacefully at home from cancer; during one of our deathbed talks she looked at me and said; "I bet your jealous that I am going first" and she was correct! My last gift to her was doing everything I could to get her into heaven! I had her anointed, I had her enrolled in the Brown Scapular and I prayed the Devine mercy Chaplet by her bedside often! She was not angry with her death sentence; she accepted God's will and her last words on this earth to me were "I love you" ! I pray that God does not let me linger here on earth too long without her....missing her is more painful than I could have ever imagined! I am not depressed or suicidal but I am sad! I told my son that should I have a heart attach or stroke I may not press that call button summoning EMS!

I told my kids the night he started seizing that we were in shock and surprised but God knew before the earth was formed that this was going to happen.

I believe each of us has the right to ask and follow through with what we believe is best for our own lives. Watching the tumors take over my sister who passed from Melanoma in '89 or my mom who had a Berry Aneurysm in her brain stem rupture at 47 to the old age of my father at 96 who is now been slowly dying over 8 years but so bitter and angry and untrusting of everyone, I just don't see that for myself.

When my daughter was involved in a horrific wreck when she was 14, I had to choose to allow fear to grip me and be of no use to her or to hold to the promise that He does not give us a spirit of fear and fight with the greatest weapon I had- prayer- for her! 31 days after the nearly fatal crash, she walked out of that hospital on her own when we had been told to look for a stay of at least 4 1/2-5 months! HE IS STILL A HEALER! Whether heat or there.. He knows what we need, when we need it and where.

If this was an option for my illness I would do it to be free of being trapped in this body and to be free of the pain. But I can’t so all I can do is suffer through. And I say suffer because I measure that based on being in severe pain more than 70% of the time. I’ve seen family pass from cancer right in front of me and I’ve also been present during death with dignity. I’ll never forget either but if it means not to suffer imaginable pain, then I say by all means, be at peace with that ability to chose ❤

In the U.S., everyone has a right to approach illness and death as they think best. The Thomms did that. Many of us consider medical aid-in-dying an option, when it seems clear to medical staff and to ourselves that death is near. That is also a spiritual approach. Medical aid-in-dying may be accompanied by joy, which the Thomms' funeral certainly seemed devoid of. When a person chooses medical aid-in-dying, all the goodbyes that need to be said can been said, everything is in place, and survivors are more prepared, after healthy grieving (NOT toxic grieving!) to move on.

Blackmonday GOD does answer prayers but we must always remember that GOD'S will always takes president over our own. If you lost a loved one, and are angry that GOD didn't spare that person as you asked, perhaps the reason is because GOD actually loved them more! We are all HIS children and HE loves each and every one of us. We are each given so much time on this earth. We don't know when our tasks are completed nor do we know when our time is up but GOD knows. Imagine how GOD must have felt to sacrifice His only son in order to save all of us! However, the saving isn't automatic We must ask Jesus to forgive our sins, accept that He is the Son of God, that He died and rose on the 3rd day. Do our best to turn away from our sins and live our lives the best we can to be worthy of the sacrifice that was made for us. It's not an easy road but once you take that step, you will be amazed at the overwhelming love you will feel! This message is my prayer for you. GOD Bless You. Amen

I don't know why people get hung up with the word dignity. It's just an alliteration. Death where we reduce needless human suffering, is that better? Even Jesus did not suffer this long. He did six hours on the cross, and of course the beatings and humiliations. But still, I have been suffering for months and I want out. I have alsready lost my dignity, now I want the suffering to end. What more of Christian virtue is there?

It's a fair weather friend who only loves you in times of blessing. If we continue to trust Jesus when the world is throwing the worst on us, that is the worthy sacrifice of thanksgiving. The most worthy offering. God restores the health the world takes away. When we go to live with Jesus in our glorified bodies, it will be forever.

@@godblessamerica9356 wouldn't it be wonderful if embryos could chose abortion for themselves when they know they will be brought into an unwanted world. Children cannot choose so they depend upon their adults. Adults should do what is best for their children. Abortion may be best.

@@godblessamerica9356 I don't choose. Not my job. You would rather a child, who is unwanted, to be birthed into this world and abused and tortured? That is psychopathic. I think an unwanted child would choose abortion. You must be pro birth....not pro life. How many unwanted children have you adopted from foster care? How many women have you approached in abortion clinics and told them you'd raise their unwanted children? How many deformed and disabled children have you adopted after their mothers found out they'd live a life of pain and suffering and would choose abortion. I bet zero. Abortion is a good option in many scenarios. It baffles me that folks like you preach life but only support birth. Enjoy the weekend.

Prayer combines many known phonomeon together, which actually produces real world results. However, these results are practical results such as establishing a goal, articulating desires, focus, envisioning the future, law of attraction. Prayer does not cause magic to take place. Limbs will not be re-grown. The dead will not be raised. Sickness will not be cured via magic from God. However prayer will help with many other known phonomeon, especially emotionally. But be aware, prayer will not produce magic.

I follow my Master Jesus Christ and I believe that every human being is as unique physically as in mind and every thought that ever evolves in human mind is approved from God. I deeply respect every human and every mind and all of those who think that assisted death is wrong should also avoid all kinds of medical support in their lives and just depend on Jesus Christ for miracles. Most of the people who think they know Jesus Christ are those who think going to church make one become saint. Going to church is just a means of being connected to society, it's not the place where you'll come to know Jesus Christ personally. It's a gift from Holy Spirit to know the truth. Assisted death with dignity is part of civilization that's in accordance with Jesus Christ.

If you ever have a near death experience your attitude changes re everything. It’s so much more than you could ever imagine. It’s difficult for our minds to even imagine the absence of time yet it exists in Heaven & the Love is so intense we couldn’t survive it in our body. We need to accept the point of understanding that each person is at. Some are so involved in life that their journey is slow. Church is meant for worship.
