I am going to try to update this blog maybe every couple of weeks or so. Isn't that better than going 6 months? There has been so much going on in my life that I feel like I cant express it how I want or someone might read it and not like what I wrote. If you are that someone, Im sorry. Just want to get my thoughts down. Maybe I can help someone else someday with what I am going through.
To make a long story short...my mom has cancer. Yes, nasty, sickening cancer. I hate it! Every thing about it. She basically doesn't have long to live. We are pretty much down to weeks at this point to be quite honest. It is hard to face but Im trying to be real for myself.
Tonight I talked to someone who has gone through this exact scenario just 20 months ago. Its pretty weird..her mom was the same age as mine with similar types of cancer. We both have 7 siblings (counting us) We both have 3 kids (same ages, boy,girl,boy) I talked with this new found friend, Margaret and it was so great! Thanks Margaret for all your time, I promise not to keep you hours next time! It was good to talk to someone who has been there. Who has been in the darkest hole, dealing with the unknown. What we all dread in this life. Losing a loved one, not to mention our own mother. I never thought in a million years that I would have to go through this at my age. I always thought my kids would have a grandma to look to to guide them as they grew. My mom has always been so healthily and strong. She is my rock, someone who I have always counted on. I dont know how I am going to get through this. I feel so lost, wandering around not knowing what decision I should make.

Sorry you have to go through it too Sherri. I pray for you guys every day!
Sherri you are in my thoughts and prayers. If you ask for strength you will have it. If The Spirit will guide you in your decisions. Keep the faith! I'm here for you girl! Your Mom is beautiful!
Sherri, it has been a LONG time. I just wanted to let you know I was thinking about you. I am sorry you have had to go through all this. I know how much your mom means to you. You have always been so close. I always admired that about you.
I was excited to find your blog! Your kids are darling. I think Davis looks a lot like you. (Cool name by the way!)
You have been in my thoughts a lot lately. I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers. If you ever want to talk, let me know. My email is the same:
suzyqz11@yahoo.com. Take care and send your mom my love!
So sorry to hear your Mom is not doing well. It's been 21 months since my Dad passed away from cancer. It is a horrible thing for someone to go through. My heart aches for you and your family. Hang in there. You will be in my prayers.
