My amazing friend Linda Stephens had triplets at age 19, Leanne, Michelle and Nicole. She then had another daughter Lisa. Unfortunately her marriage broke up and after many years she met Tom Stephens who already had a daughter. They had another daughter Cindy so that left them with 6 daughters to raise.
Unfortunately only years ago one of the triplets Leanne was murdered by her partner leaving 4 children the youngest being 8 years old.
Linda and Tom took on the children to raise and because of financial and emotional stress lost their home but continued to raise 4 children who are all now amazing adults.
Linda continues to support all her children, grandchildren and great grandchildren and is an inspiration to everyone who knows her.
Linda deserves a little bit of recognition and self indulgence for everything she has had to endure during her life
