NEVER GIVE UP: How Colleen Murphy and Lauren Defied All Odds to Inspire Thousands!
Description
I spoke with Colleen about how her life was changed when her daughter Lauren was hit by a car and suffered severe brain damage. Colleen doesn't believe everything happens for a reason. But, she and Lauren have not allowed Lauren's injuries to keep them from living a life of purpose. Thei mantra is "Murphys don't quit".
Colleen Murphy is a wife, mother of seven, author, and public speaker.
In 2013, tragedy struck Colleen’s family when her second oldest daughter, Lauren, was hit by a car and suffered severe brain damage. Colleen’s main focus became helping piece Lauren back together again. With the help of specialists from all over the country, her family and friends, as well as her strong faith, she was able to do just that.
Today, Colleen and Lauren speak together as a team, inspiring thousands of people by sharing the details of Lauren’s tragic accident, never-give-up attitude, and miraculous recovery.
Colleen lives just outside of St. Louis, Missouri with her husband Dave. She spends her free time fielding countless phone calls from her children as they deal with the challenges of adulting and assisting her husband via FaceTime as he struggles to find things at the grocery store.
