While I am not a fan of their genre of music - I was very inspired by Naomi Judd the woman.
I own the two books she wrote.
Her story is so sad.
She claimed in her later years that her Mother never loved her.
She lost a close brother to cancer when she was a teenager.
She was estranged from her daughter throughout her life.
She was a single, working Mother of two.
Struggled w/money early on.
Lived out in the country, sometimes had no heat, telephone, T.V. or enough food.
One of her ex-boyfriends was a dangerous felon who ended up stalking her.
Her current husband had cheated on her early on.
But she had her faith and truly inspired me through both her books as well as her public appearances.
I knew that she struggled hard w/mental issues.
I saw her in an interview w/Robin Roberts for ABC where her medication made her face swell up and her hands shake.
She discussed being suicidal previously.
She was molested as a young girl by an Uncle.
I could go on & on…
