Mom,
Just wanted to
write a little note to thank you especially for all that you have done this
past year. I really cannot begin to express how much I have appreciated your
willingness to just be there for me and the kids at the drop of a hat. But more
than that, you have done it all while not only dealing with your daughter
having brain cancer, but also dealing with your own cancer treatments. I cannot
imagine what it was like to get the call last May. Just to hear that your
daughter has cancer. But in some strange way, I think you were prepared. You
were kicking cancers' butt and now you could help me to do the same. It's been
extra special to commiserate with my own mom about the not so lovely details of
treatments. You are truly an amazing mom, and I wish I could be there in
person to tell you this, but we both know that I wouldn't be able to get the
words out.
I have said it
before and I will say it again, you really can't begin to appreciate the love
that your parents have for you until you have your own kids. Thank you for
loving me when I was misbehaving. Thank you for encouraging me to stand on my
own. Thank you for letting me fall down but being there to help me up if I
needed. Thank you for your patience. Thank you for the unconditional love you have
shown. Thank you for being you.
Happy Mother's
Day Mommy! I love you and miss you so much!
