"They told me she wouldn’t survive... but I refused to believe that was the end of our story." Mike Knox was living a vibrant, full life when everything changed—his young daughter was diagnosed with epilepsy, and seizures began threatening every part of her future. What followed was a journey filled with sleepless nights, hospital visits, prayer, panic, and unconditional love.
In this episode of The Resilience Files: Unlocked, Mike opens up about being a father in crisis, what it means to advocate for your child when the world tells you to give up, and how he found strength in vulnerability.
This story is about more than survival—it’s about showing up every single day for the people you love, even when you’re falling apart inside.
