Journal entry by Linda Almsteadt

I am thankful to say after recovery of 15 months, I am as good as new. I am so thankful to God first and foremost that he found fit to keep me on this earth. My purpose now is to move forward with gratefulness and strength. It was the most trying time of my life other than losing my son and my husband. But as always God sees us through and we become stronger and better. I can only say to those of you that read this and may be going through something to just trust and believe I know that whatever comes your way, if you have asked God for it and it doesn’t happen, there is another purpose. I saw that mine was to get stronger and learn how to push one regardless of what life brings me. I am thankful for the air I breathe, my, I loving caring family and friends. If there’s anything I have learned on my life journey is that nothing can keep me down except me. I choose to be positive, loving, and try to live my life to help others. Today I post becauseIt is my deceased husband’s birthday. That was another hard time. But I can honestly say today is a day that I will remember him and smile and be thankful for the time that I had with him. I will move on in life and dIt is my deceased husband’s birthday. That was another hard time. But I can honestly say today is a day that I will remember him and smile and be thankful for the time that I had with him. I will move on in life and be determined to be happy! Life isn’t about what you go through… but what you get through positively and can help others through.
