What started out as a regular day trip to the doctors, ended with an emotional chance meeting that would reduce the multi award winning artist to tears. 24-year-old amputee, Courtney Fields, is the real life angel who stirred Kirks heart.
Courtneys story is one of courage and unwavering faith amidst the storm. I recently had an above the knee leg amputation.. I had a blood clot in my lungs and in order to save my life they had to take my legthis has not been an easy journey but I trust in the Lord, she shared with Franklins 2.3million Instagram followers..
I have a daughter her age so its really affecting me, said a choked-up Franklin. In a surprising move bound to convict every A-List gospel artist whilst making all Kirks hardcore fans turn green with envy, the artist punched his phone number into Courtneys phone vowing to help her achieve her dreams.
