Angels Sometimes Suffer: The Lina Joy Story

By Governor Joy and Bobby Alvarez

This is the story of Lina Joy, a vibrant woman, strong Christian, loving wife, and doting mother. A woman also apparently blessed by God with the same type of bone marrow as a leukemia sufferer desperate for a bone marrow transplant.

This is also the story of Lina Joy after the bone marrow harvest. In no time at all, she was struck by a series of devastating complications, all the result of a break in sterilization during the harvest.

But, most of all, Angels Sometimes Suffer is the story of the gifts that God sends your way to help you get through nightmares just like these.
