We found out in November that my mom has breast cancer. She has been getting a lot of tests done to find out the extent of it. Yesterday we found out that it is stage 4. That is a hard fight. We are trying to stay positive though. She starts chemo next week.
It's hard for me to see my mom go through this. She is my hero. I don't want her to be sick. I don't want her to lose her hair (which she will). I don't want to have to answer all those tough questions that my kids will have. Most of all I don't want to think about losing my mom.
I want to be strong and be there for her. My kids want Maama to get better. Last night Brock and I talked to the boys about how sick Maama really is. Raiden is determined to get her the right medicine, even if he has to fight some monsters for it. (How sweet is that?!) Neither Saige nor Raiden want her to lose her "circle hair" as Raiden puts it. They just want their Maama to be okay again. I guess that is what all of us really wants. For Mom/Maama to be better.
There are some rough months ahead of us, but we are all determined to make it through. If anyone who reads this would say a prayer for my wonderful and strong mom, I would be eternally grateful!
