Show Notes
"To lose thee is to lose myself," John Milton wrote in Paradise Lost. But what happens when you lose both? Alma Thomas lost her teenage son to a sudden heart attack at the age of 18 and then a few years later lost herself to a stroke.
Alma, an author, was given a 1 percent chance of survival by doctors. She survived and says she has thrived. Alma says in this interview that part of what drove her to write again and help people was to send the message that "cemeteries are filled with unfulfilled potential" and that she did not want to die with her "purpose inside" her.
