Dear God,
For yesterday and today I've been trying to give myself a break from all that is troubling my mind. I just found out my mom is having a biopsy in nine days. The ultrasound showed something and now the doctor's want to take a closer look. My sisters and I are praying it's not cancer. However, if it is, there's a good chance for complete recovery.
My mom lives six hours north in the Northwoods of Wisconsin. She is pretty far from my sisters and I. We'd like her to move closer but that's something she can't do right now. It worries me to think as she approaches her 70th birthday that more medical things are going to start happening. We want her close to us.
We're coming up with a plan for what we need to do to make sure she feels supported and is being well taken care of. It's nice to be in a family that has been living in recovery for over 30 years. We're all on the same page. No one person is being dumped on.
Our family has come a long way. My mom was the leader who took charge so her daughters had a better chance of surviving. My mom is my hero.
She always will be.
Love your daughter,
Amy Kathleen
