Halo Found Hope

Author found ray of hope in darkest of circumstances. Despite being tested by a terrifying diagnosis, Helo Matzelle clung to faith.

Six days turned into eight weeks. She awoke to discover that she was not the same. She saw two of everything, couldn’t feel half of her face, couldn’t hear from one ear, and could not speak. She couldn’t even tell anyone that she felt hopeless... or could she?

Halo Found Hope is the story of a beautiful, busy wife, and mother of three whose life changes instantly with the diagnosis of a rare brain tumor. An exceptional ENT, a brilliant neurosurgeon and a dedicated medical team tackle the tumor, setting off a series of unbelievable miracles.

Join Perla and I as we discuss with author Helo how this simple diary turned into "Halo Found Hope", a memoir. Helo chronicles her battle against a brain tumor with vivid details surrounding surgery, complications, an eight-week hospital stay, and twenty weeks of intense rehabilitation (learning how to walk, talk, eat, think and function again).  Helo also shares with us how God stayed by her side…turns doubt into trust, fear into courage, and defeat into determination. He equips us to be brave.

A portion of author proceeds will go to the National Brain Tumor Society, the largest non-profit organization dedicated to the brain tumor community in the United States.
