Christine Suau -044

Meet a woman who has experienced what every parent dreads the most:  the death of a child.   Christine Suau’s son, Devin was only 6 years old when he was diagnosed with DIPG, a very rare form of brain cancer.  Determined to do what she could to keep him alive, Christine conceived the hashtag:  WhyNotDevin, hoping he would be the very first child to beat this fatal disease.  It didn’t take long for the news of Devin’s cancer to travel around the world. He was visited by sports legends and famous actors and even blessed at a private audience with Pope Francis in Rome.  But as prayers poured in for Devin, he left this world in his mother’s arms, just 8 months after diagnosis.  The youngest of Christine’s 4 boys, Devin continues to be an inspiration for this exceptional woman who has created the Why Not Devin Foundation.  #whynotdevin    #storybehindhersuccess    #16LifeLessons   #mydoveproductions
