Synopsis

How do you handle the trauma of going from one day having a healthy, vital wife to suddenly facing your worst nightmare in just a matter of minutes?

Where do you find the strength to keep going when you don’t even know what tomorrow will bring?

What do you need to do to find the courage to face up to those challenging moments in life?

On August 6, 2018, Craig Hopper’s 46-year old wife Tove suffered a near-fatal heart attack. She received CPR for 40 minutes. Her heart didn’t beat for almost 24 hours. She was on life support for 30 hours, in a coma for 10 days, and in hospital for 10 weeks. She had seven operations. She sustained long-term injuries to her brain and body.

In an instant, Craig became the sole provider and caregiver for Tove, as well as their three young boys. He was now the Minister of Everything. That meant cooking meals, shopping, laundry, dishes, gardening, cleaning, play dates, birthday parties, Christmas presents, school work, music practice, finding socks, earning money, paying the bills, and a whole lot more.

This is a story about the heart attack that took Craig’s wife away from him at the age of 46, and the journey of getting his family back on track. This is a story about love, and family, and grief, and those great challenges that can come along and sideswipe any one of us at any time. This is the story for people who are avoiding the tough stuff that is holding them back from living their best life.
