In 2012 I got some of the worst news I ever thought I would. My mother had been diagnosed with stage 3 breast cancer. It broke me to hear this news but I knew my mom was strong and would beat this horrible thing.
For almost 3 years after chemo and radiation my mother has been cancer free until July of this year. My mother has bone cancer on 9 of the vertebrae in her spin. There is no cure for this and treatment can only delay the inevitable. I'm going to lose my mother well.before her time.
I'm a strong individual but this has weighed heavy on my heart ever since her diagnosis. I have lost loved ones and close friends but how can I deal with the loss of my mom? I never thought I'd know how much time I had left with her and that time would be so short.
