OVERCOMING HARDSHIP

Rev Runs' wife opened up about the death of their now late newborn baby Victoria. Speaking about how they managed to overcome this tragic incident, Justine expressed:

"Truthfully, a lot of marriages would have broken up. When we went through that loss, I was so devastated."

This was when the couple chose to adopt Miley. Justine claimed that adopting their daughter was a complete healing process for her.

Extending her heart out to other children, Justine acts as one of the spokespeople for Novo Nordisk. This is a global company focused on the importance of health.

The couple spoke at The Bays Water School in 2018 to converse about health and diabetes. Rev Runs' wife wishes these conversations were had when she was a child.
