Unexpected News

In the last few years, I've grown a very close relationship with my mother. We've both made some mistakes when it really mattered most, but the big picture is that she is my best friend. We talk about everything, even things most wouldn't feel comfortable telling their mother. I came out to Virginia to visit my mother for mother's day, and for the simple fact that I havent seen her since christmas. The first day I arrived here in Virginia, my mother dropped a huge bomb on me. She told me she has cervical cancer. I WAS SHOCKED. I knew that she had to be sick, because she had lost a TON of weight. I never imagined it would be due to cancer. Aftern drilling her with questions, I am very hopeful for the outcome. You see, this isnt the first time she's had to fight off cancer. She's beat it once before when I was too little to remember. So I have no doubt that she can beat it now! She's got a few more weeks of chemo treatments and then it's on the the next step if it's not gone by then. So all I ask is that you please keep her in your thoughts and prayers. She needs our support, and our love! Thanks in advance...

Until next time...
