“If I only looked at what I’ve lost,
I’d never be able to see what I have.”

Cindy’s Story
Cindy Charlton is an accomplished and powerful speaker bringing her message of hope and inspiration to people of all ages. Her own experiences of loss have allowed her the vision to see and understand how precious and valuable every moment of living is. Cindy considers herself to be a survivor, living through a traumatic illness, which took three of her limbs. She knows she beat the odds, escaping with her life, when no one thought she would live. Two years after her own harrowing experience with illness, her beloved husband Michael died from a very rare form of cancer, leaving her to pick up the pieces of her childrens’broken hearts, and creating a new way of living for her family. One of the most important lessons in life, for her, is not to let her losses get in the way of her living.
