Women are not all awful. I just say that sometimes to be funny. | ||
Women on the internet tend to be pretty bad, but there are also some people that you look at them and you go, how do you exist? | ||
How are you this wonderful? | ||
And this story on a Monday is going to give you the chills. | ||
You may have seen it in the media, but I just want to make sure that every single person hears about it. | ||
There is a woman from Kentucky. | ||
Her name is Cindy Mullins, Lucinda Mullins. | ||
And she went in to the hospital because she had a kidney stone that needed to be operated on. | ||
The kidney stone had become infected. | ||
But while she was under an anesthetic, it turns out that they realized that things had gone septic. | ||
Obviously, this is a very serious bacteria that can spread throughout your body and kill you very quickly. | ||
So while she was under, they had to remove all of her limbs. | ||
She became a quadruple amputee. | ||
She woke up and she learned of this. | ||
I want you to imagine this woman that has lived her life with no handicaps. | ||
She is a married mother raising two sons and she woke up in a hospital to find out that she had no limbs. | ||
What was her reaction? | ||
Gratefulness to be alive. | ||
Can I tell you that this story brought tears to my eyes? | ||
It really did. I showed my husband this and I said, I can't even believe this, that she has been nothing but happy and gracious to be alive. | ||
She's been sharing pictures, talking about how she's just happy that she gets to see her husband and gets to still be a mother and to see her children. | ||
To imagine a person that can go through something this unexpectedly and This drastic, something that can just completely alter your life and to have nothing but graciousness. | ||
We should all aspire to be this person. | ||
We should all aspire to be these sorts of people in the world. | ||
Just to give you guys a sense of her gratitude, here is a clip of her speaking to a local news agency about what she has endured. | ||
unidentified
|
This is what they had to do to save your life. | |
This is what's happened. | ||
I just said, these are the cards that I've been dealt. | ||
This is the hand that I'm going to play. | ||
In your mind, if it's this or dying, I choose this. | ||
I'm so happy to be alive that that's okay. | ||
I get to see my kids. | ||
I get to see my family. | ||
So those are minor things at this point. | ||
This is just a remarkable story. | ||
And the first thing that my husband said when I told him about her is she must be a Christian. | ||
And she is a Christian. | ||
And I feel that that Christian perspective, just what it means when you have a faith in something that is bigger than yourself is what we are seeing here. | ||
I want to make sure that we support her in any and every capacity. | ||
I will be donating $1,000 to her. | ||
There is a GoFundMe that has been set up. | ||
Obviously, when she gets home, her entire house is going to have to change to ensure that it is wheelchair accessible. | ||
Her entire life is going to change, obviously. | ||
She is going to be in physical therapy for a very long time, and I am asking all of my listeners, take the time today. | ||
I know that we are all living through very tough times. | ||
Even if you can just give 50 cent or to give a dollar, this is just a woman that absolutely deserves it, a family that deserves it, her graciousness, her gratitude. | ||
I don't know. I'm amazed by her in every single capacity. | ||
Again, that is Lucinda Mullins. | ||
You should know her name. | ||
She goes by Cindy. Cindy Mullins out of Kentucky. | ||
God bless her. | ||
Truly, obviously, clearly God already has because to have that sort of perspective in life is something that we all should share. | ||
