About Laurel Austin

I am a 38 year old mother of 3 and a widow.  I lost my husband of almost 11 years to a very difficult battle with cancer.  I strive everyday to make a difference in the lives of those I love.  We are not promised tomorrow.  Each day is a gift.  Through God’s grace I am walking and surviving this journey.  If I could go back and make changes in our lives together I would.  I know we can’t go backwards, but I can change the way I deal with today.  Show those you love in words and actions.  I had a happy marriage, not perfect, but I would have done so much more had I known that our time together would have been so short.  I still love him and miss him everyday.  I see him in our children and strive to raise them to be like him.
