Finding Hope is a memoir that chronicles the journey one woman
faced when she gave birth to a critically ill baby. This inspirational book
begins in the hospital delivery room, then NICU, where the most fragile babies
are treated and brought back to life. In the years to come, more struggles
emerged.

How do you find hope in adversity? Faith is the only way.

Stuart, Delena

Delena is a wife, mother, grandmother, minister, Christian speaker, and founder of Ragan's HOPE. When asked what she is most proud of with her accomplishments, she will answer, "my family." Although Delena has been an executive in the corporate sector for many years and has celebrated achievements and awards, her family remains her priority. Delena and her late husband Randy were blessed to raise three daughters.

Delena's passion is to serve other parents who have children with medical issues, and help them understand that they are not alone. With God's direction, she developed a nonprofit called Ragan's HOPE, a national organization to help families in need.

Both Delena and the foundation have received several awards within the non-profit sector recognizing the dedication of its mission. She serves as the founder of this organization and feels that in addition to raising her children, this is an accomplishment of which she is very proud.

Delena also enjoys speaking to audiences with various interests. Her speaking topics include advocating for patients and health care, navigating the health-care industry, overcoming adversity, leadership and the power of faith.

Delena and her husband Dan live in Texas and love spending time with their grandson, Ethan.
