My Mom's Battle is My Battle


My mom is right now going through cancer. I really felt like I had to share my opinion on what's happening in my family. Even though we are going through hard times, I think we can push through this. But, along the way, we will have more challenges. But we have still been blessed in many ways; my mom recently came home about 2 weeks earlier than expected. Even though we have to be VERY careful, the doctors knew she had us children at home and let her go. And while this may sound weird, her infection was also a blessing; without it, the doctors would have never found out about her cancer. Modern technology is also a blessing; the doctors use it to help my mom with her treatments, and also when she was in the hospital we talked to her using skype. It's also a blessing that my mom had Clara before she had her infection and cancer, or else we might not have Clara right now. We are all very grateful for these blessings and for all of you who are helping us.  With all these things going on, I still believe we can push through this. We have things that keep us going. For example, one thing that pushes me through is that I know that after all of these things, my mom will be perfectly fine. I also have other fun things going on that help me stay happy. For example, baseball. I love baseball, and also I have some fun field trips coming up. We all know we can push through this, and we know in the end it will all be okay. :)
