My Mothers Struggle
Sorry that I am writing on a sad note.
A couple of weeks ago my mom was diagnosed with breast cancer. I am feeling terribly bad for her. I guess is the naive thinking that good people deserve good things. But that is not how life works. Well I didn't forget but I had it in the back of my mind. It was 2 or 3 days ago that she went in for the surgeon to examine her and he told her that this week she needs to be operated. It breaks my heart to see my parents struggling because I know how hard they work and I love them so much.
I know I need to support her but I just don't know how. I always listen to her and try to make things easier but....I really love her, she's a fighter and against all odds she proves everybody wrong. I guess I am worried that things might get worse.
Its so hard, shes 50 and still working to provide the family. I wish she would just quit her job and relax. I work too and I try to put in money whether it is making the shopping for the things needed around the house or just working in the house.
Well I just needed to get this off my chest. I honestly don't know what I would do without her. Sometimes I just wish I could do more, but I don't know hat else to do. When she talks to me I stay strong but inside is just breaking me. I still got to stay strong for her, let her know I am here.
I really hope she knows how much I love her and all I am willing to do for her.
