I wanted to share an inspiring blog that I have been following. Stephanie Nielson and her husband were in a very serious plane crash August 8, 2008. Her husband was burned over 30percent of his body, Stephanie was burned over 80 percent. She was in a coma for three months.. During this time her family took turns being at her bedside and eventually she came home, to a new home that is, near her family in Utah. Her story made national news... I wanted to share this message today because the Nielson's were on Oprah today. Oh my goodness, the two of them, especially Stephanie have come soo far since the crash. Yes, they say times were very tough accepting the fact that this is their new life. A viewer who had written to Oprah, went inside the Nielson's home to see what life was like. Emotional to watch to say the least, you know the little things we take for granted. There is a family photo taken before the crash, all of them with such a natural beauty. The viewer had a tough time looking at the before picture. Stephanie pointed out that, yes physically she looks different from the before photo but pointed out that she still has everyone with her- their love and support.. I took away from the show and everytime I read the blog that with FAITH and FAMILY anything is possible!
I have included her blog link if you want to go back and read from the beginning. Be sure to have some tissues handy!! I encourage you to read it when you have time because it is very awe inspiring, how life can change so quickly, but with faith and family you will get through those tough times..
