Making peace, surrendering, accepting that death is inevitable and not fearing it - a mindset 99% of the world can only dream of reaching, but Bill Hartman did, in fact, inspirationally reach. Today I sit down with my new friend, Annie Hartman, to talk about all she learned about life, faith, trust, empathy, & strength from watching her dad, Bill, battle brain cancer.

We discuss the harsh realities of living with or watching a loved one live with a brain injury. These harsh realities are so harsh that they often do not discriminate, no matter what caused them albeit an illness, trauma, genetic mutation etc. Despite these harsh realities, through Bill’s battle, Annie was blessed with the certainty of her faith.

Annie and I both hope that we can make the public more aware of the difficulties brain impairments present, both to the victim and family and loved ones of. Listen to us celebrate the man Bill was while Annie tells about all the positivity he bled into this world, her own life, strangers’ lives, and his sold-out rock concert funeral.

Annie was sprinkled into my life by the Universe, just as I started this podcast. For that, I am eternally grateful because she generously gifted us this conversation.
