In my conversation today, Emily’s son Owen or as we like to call him, “Mighty O” is truly a miracle child. You will be in absolute awe of the remarkable courage, dedication, perseverance, and faith that the Cobb family exhibits every single day.
Owen required fetal surgery at 25 weeks, has been diagnosed with 10 different types of medical conditions, has undergone countless MRIs, scans, bloodwork, x-rays, etc., and he will for the rest of his life. Owen often asks Emily when he will grow out of Spina Bifida. He is a happy, satiated child, despite his physical differences. Owen is now 7 ½ years old, he loves unconditionally, has a glowing smile, and a wonderful personality.
The journey the Cobb family has been on since before Owen was born will inspire you beyond words, bring you to tears, and encourage you like never before to never give up and never take anything for granted. Emily and her husband, Justin are two of the most courageous, selfless, loving parents you will ever meet.
Today’s episode reminds me so much of Jesus’ love for us no matter what and that He will equip us with the strength we need to endure all that comes our way. The Cobb family gives us all encouragement in how we can walk in holy boldness and faith no matter what life throws at us.
