Woman Makes A Final Request At Hospital That Suddenly Changes Everything

Excitement is a rare commodity inside a hospice care center. If you were in the hospice center of Spectrum Health’s Fuller campus, however, “gloomy” would not have been the first word to come to mind. You would’ve seen hallways strewn with flower petals, heard an angelic harp playing in the distance, and strangest of all, a woman with days to live wearing a wide, joyful smile. One dramatic twist completely shifted her perspective on life for the better.

An Inevitable Outcome

Rhonda White didn’t need to see another doctor or another specialist: She understood what was going to happen to her. At just 50, she knew her time on earth was running out. It was just a question of when...

A Big Change

At this point, Rhonda could barely move, let alone leave her hospital bed. The Rhonda from a mere three months before was active, fun-loving, and as far as she knew, completely healthy. So how did she end up in hospice care?

Medical Emergency

In September 2018, Rhonda awoke in the middle of the night with a severe headache and was rushed to the hospital. It was there that she learned about her brain tumor...and the additional lesions on her lung and liver.

Bleak Outlook

Practically overnight, Rhonda’s unknown future was cut down to months, then weeks. Her daughter Jordan was just as blindsided by the bleak diagnosis as Rhonda. “It was one of the craziest days of my life,” she recalled.
