Summary

In this episode, Caroline sits down with country artist Drake White and his wife, Alex. They dive into their individual health struggles and the hardships they’ve overcome in recent years. In 2019, Drake suffered a hemorrhagic stroke on stage at a show due to a rare condition called an Arteriovenous Malformation (AVM). He received life-saving care and began a long journey to recovery. That is when his wife Alex’s health began to decline due to undiagnosed diabetes. Drake and Alex share how their faith was tested again and again through a season of illness and infertility which ultimately led them to their IVF journey and having their son, Hawk.
