Bride loses her groom and her leg, but not her faith by Joi Ware

Summary: Tasha Bradford made her husband, Sylvester Storey, wait two years before going on a date. All of their friends knew it was instantly meant to be and they married after one week. Their relationship went from happiness to tragedy after Tasha lost her husband, one of her legs, and some of her colon on the way back from their honeymoon. After all she endured she didn't lose faith. She had just turned 31 the week before, it had rained the day of her wedding, her grandfather was the first to arrive, and her bridesmaids and herself prayed before she made her debut down the aisle. The day after they got a head start on the drive back to make the evening church service. Bradford went to sleep on the way back and woke up being airlifted to a hospital where she learned her husband had been pronounced dead. Their car had turned over, but no one knew why or how. So many people had came to her aid, two women men and their wives pulled her out, and two women kept her warm and called peers. Bradford mourned for her husband but knew he was going to a better place.
Analysis: I truly envy this women, its amazing after all she endured that she can keep her faith strong. She can be thankful that she survived, that she is still alive. Although her husband didnt make it she still has a lot to live for. She didnt give up on life and for her to do that is truly amazing. For her to go from something so happy such as her wedding day, which a women waits for her whole life to her honeymoon then to a car crash and losing her husband. It take a special strong woman to endure all of the above.

  3. In life we will encounter the struggles and hardships no matter where we will go. But it is how we respond to these struggles that define us. "10% of your life is what happens to you, 90% is how you respond." It is encouraging to hear that despite this women's hardships, she still maintains a positive outlook and attitude.

  4. It takes a strong person to lose limbs and a loved one and still be willing to go on with one's life.
