My family and I had to learn to be strong, to fight harder, and to keep it moving. It’s about faith. My husband and I had to deal with medical issues. Our daughter, Shirdetra Chark, had to learn and believe in her faith in God while fighting for her life, attending Nicholls State University, and coaching at Dillard University. Our son, D. J. Chark, had to learn his faith as a young boy and, while becoming a young man, had always kept God in his life. He learned to have faith while playing football at Louisiana State University and while dealing with the family’s medical situation. Through it all, he was blessed to be drafted in the NFL. Thanks to the ones who stood by me through thick and thin. “I sought the Lord, and he answered me, and delivered me from all my fears” (Psalm 34:4).
