Chelsea and Dustin share their powerful journey of grief, love, and faith as they recount losing five close family members in just three years. From the devastating loss of Chelsea’s father and brother to the sudden passing of both of Dustin’s parents in a tragic motorcycle accident, followed shortly by the death of Chelsea’s sister-in-law, their story is one of unimaginable sorrow met with unshakable strength.

Despite the heartbreak, Chelsea and Dustin found purpose through their faith, deep community ties, and the support of their church and each other. Chelsea’s professional background as a therapist and Dustin’s reflections on divine timing reveal how grief can transform a family, and how showing up for others during their darkest moments can bring healing.
