The Woman Who Saved Us All
In this moving and intimate podcast presented by Storykeep with Jamie Yuenger, Michael pays tribute to his mother—a woman of extraordinary strength, sacrifice, and compassion. Born in southern India, she left behind a life of rural hardship to become a pioneering nurse and midwife, ultimately immigrating to the U.S. during the “brain drain” of the late 1960s.
Her story is one of relentless devotion: to her patients, her faith, and most of all, her family.
Michael shares powerful memories of how his mother championed him as a misunderstood child, supported his daughter through a life-threatening epilepsy diagnosis, and stood by him through spinal surgery and cancer.
Their bond is spiritual, generational, and alive in every story he tells.
