Where would I be without you?
You have been there for me in everything. You know my temperament- the good, the bad, and the ugly. You were my outlet during a lot of the trials and tribulations as we dealt with David’s illness. When I broke down and knew I could not go on, you gave me the encouragement to carry on. You were a confidant to David, he told you things he couldn’t tell me because he worried about how I would handle it. You handled everything with your usual grace, assurance, faith, and calmness.
People often ask how we managed to maintain a normal routine at home and with our children as we battled David’s illness. You were definitely a key to this. You were the first person we informed about David’s illness and you were with us every step until the end.
Thank you for your patience and understanding. Thank you for the prayers, thank you for listening, thank you for making it possible for David to stay home until the end. Thank you for showing David and I the extent of a Mother’s love, an unconditional love.
Your motherly and nurturing skills are beyond my abilities. I continue to learn from you and be inspired by you. I love you more than words can express. You are one in a million. I am truly blessed to have you as my Mommy, my Mother.
