Bethany's faith in God helped her through her tragedy. She tried to get on her surf board three times before she got all the way back to the beach. "'From what seems like such a horrible thing God has just brought glory to himself'" said Hamilton. She speaks about her faith and how it helped her recovery. Many people thought she would be done surfing after she recovered. When the paramedic was n the ambulance, he said to her "God will never leave you nor forsake you." (Jennifer Riley)
"But with a smile on her face, she recalls that she has a sense of peace and calmness... She was able to turn to Jesus during this crazy moment in her life." (Jennifer Riley)
Eight years after the tragedy she competes in the Association of Surfing Professionals. When Bethany has free time she teaches the children at a surf camp called Walking on Water and also helps fundraiser for local charities.
