In this deeply moving episode, Linda Henderson shares the heartbreaking story of losing her 27-year-old daughter Andrea in a car accident just five days before Christmas. Andrea — a social worker, wife, and expectant mother — was killed instantly when a distracted transport truck driver slammed into her car. What followed was not just unimaginable grief, but a years-long battle with a failed justice system, a fight for grandparent visitation rights, and a struggle to rebuild after everything had shattered.Linda opens up about the anger and paralysis that took hold in the years after Andrea's death, including the emotional toll of two trials — one for the driver who walked free due to a technicality, and another just to see her grandson. But even in the darkest moments, Linda found ways to stay connected to her daughter: through therapy, community support, and an angelic encounter that inspired her to build a memorial garden filled with Andrea's favorite colors, scents, and even stones from her yard.This episode is a powerful testament to the resilience of mothers, the importance of honoring grief in your own time, and the healing that can come from creating something beautiful out of heartbreak. Linda's story is not just about loss — it's about survival, love, legacy, and the ongoing journey to find peace after tragedy.GIVE THE SHOW A 5-STAR RATING ON APPLE PODCASTS!
