Michael S's Story
Michael lost his wife, Kelli, just five days after her 62nd birthday following complications from alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency that led to liver and multiple organ failure. In the months before her passing, their family was already grieving the murder of her daughter, whose case is still ongoing. Michael has been in counseling and has participated in several grief support groups. He is coming to the retreat hoping to find a way to enjoy the things he once shared with his wife, which now feel too difficult to return to.
