At a time in her life that should have been one of her happiest –just prior to her wedding –Christina Menkemeller developed frightening symptoms and was given a devastating diagnosis. In the wake of this news, Christina’s fiancé Cardin never wavered in his commitment and the newlywed couple decided to take a yearlong trip that would change the course of their lives. After facing the understandable “why me” moments, Christina was buoyed by her faith and a sense of gratitude and decided to launch a nonprofit –called Being Positioned –to help others with conditions like hers go on their own dream trips. She describes this organization as a sort of “Make-A-Wish for adults” and it’s already making a huge impact and helping her find purpose in her suffering.
