Mom and Brent came for a visit this weekend. I am so thankful to her for the example she is to me. She has lost over 100 pounds this year, later diagnosed with breast cancer. Endured three months of intense chemo therapy, has neuropathy in her leg, nerve damage in her arm (due to the poisonous chemo therapy leaking from the vein momentarily), has dry eyes (can't see very well even with her glasses on), yet manages to stay POSITIVE through it all! I am so thankful to get to have her here with us longer. She is a blessing to me and her whole family. She has made so many new friends and feels more confident than I have ever known her to be. She is what I may say....Mom; only better! She has many wonderful stories about nurses she loves and friends she adores. We all agree; she's the best.
I love you Mom. She may be unhappy with me for posting these pictures together, but I hope she will be alright with it. In fact the recent photos of this weekend was the first time she has ever allowed anyone to take her picture. I am so thankful to have a few pictures of my Mom, with hopes of many more to come!
