Thankfully, he chose the latter. Years after his initial diagnosis, Nick continues to live his life with passion, and he's cancer free!

Tatianna Dickens
In 2003, Tatianna's son Zack, (then age 3) was diagnosed with autism (IQ of 50, most skills in the 12-15 month range.) She'd just had her 3rd child, and was not emotionally or physically prepared to handle the insurmountable challenges that lay ahead; however, her faith in God gave her the strength to trudge forward. She and her husband, James began three long years of a non-stop intense early intervention program to save their son.
Her book, Accept No Autism: Our Family's Story of Recovery (Release Date: April 2010) is a beautiful testimony of how a complete and total surrender to God's will can render the most surprising results.
