Cyndi Desjardins, International Motivational Speaker, Profile Image

In honor of Mother’s Day this Sunday, prospeakers.com is sending a heartfelt “thank you” to all the remarkable moms: thank you for providing unconditional love and support; for always extending your arms when we need to be held; and for even chasing away the monsters in the closet. Sometimes we wonder: “How do they do it all?”

This weekend is the perfect time to show your mom that you are truly thankful. With a card, a bouquet of roses, a box of chocolates or even a hug to tell your mom (or someone else’s mom!): thank you.

Cyndi Desjardins is a hero and remarkable mother.

She did not think she would ever be able to hold her children in her arms again, hold their hands or wipe their tears. We could never imagine having these simple things taken away. But for Cyndi it was a reality.

In February of 2011 Cyndi was diagnosed with necrotizing fasciitis, more commonly known as flesh eating disease. After five weeks of battling this ferocious disease, Cyndi woke to find her hands  and feet amputated in an effort to save her life. In May Cyndi was transferred to a rehabilitation facility, there she re-learned how to walk with artificial legs and perform basic every day functions. Things we all take for granted.

Cyndi is an amazing woman who has an extraordinary will to live, fight and to overcome this inconceivable challenge, she courageously recaptured the ability to care for her children, be a mother, a wife, and live life as best and as independently as possible. Cindy has accomplished so much in two years since becoming ill. She has reclaimed her title as a hands-on mom!
