Have you ever faced a moment when life literally lifted you off the ground—and you still found the strength to hold on?
On a seemingly ordinary day in Largo, Florida, 76-year-old Deborah Mettler experienced something none of us ever imagine: a tornado swept through her home, lifting it off the ground with her inside. Yet, against all odds, Deborah survived this harrowing ordeal. Her story, shared in an eye-opening video report by ABC News, is a powerful testament to human resilience and sheer determination.
But what does a tornado survivor have to do with your journey toward parenthood? Everything.
Life’s storms—whether literal or metaphorical—can strike us unexpectedly. Trying to conceive, facing fertility challenges, or navigating alternative paths to building a family can sometimes feel like a tempest threatening to uproot your hopes.
