A Mother's Sacrifice

Folder: 
family

On March 2, 2012 in Henryville Ind. lived a lady name Stephanie
She was like millions of others busy raising her family
Before the day was through
Life would never again be as she knew
The town would be hit by a tornado registering as an F-4
Stephanie threw her body over her children lying on the floor
She’d end up losing both of her legs to save her family
Her husband took the news gratefully
He knows that he still has his family
Because of the sacrifice made by Stephanie
The doctor said it’d be over a year before she would walk again
But she struggled through all the pain
She looked pass her fears
Refused to shed too many tears
She was determined to walk again before they said she would
She wanted to be back with her family as quick as she could
While in rehab she pushed through all the pain
Not six months later Stephanie is walking again.
