Happy Birthday Mom!

Tomorrow, March 18th is my mom's Birthday!!


In May of 2005 she was diagnosed with colon cancer. That day honestly changed our entire family's lives. We see life in a totally new perspective. I hate to admit that it took this diagnosis to make us appreciate life all that much more. One day you are going about your own business thinking this could never happen to your family, then the next day you are hearing the word "cancer". After several months of chemo, radiation and two surgeries later, I'm so happy to say that she has been in remission for almost 4 years. God has been so good to us. She has her days however, but they just switched her stomach medicine and so far it seems to be helping with all the nausea.

Mom, you have been dealt "a different set of cards" but you always come out with a winning hand. Wish I had only half of your strength!! Wishing you the best Birthday ever mom!! LOVE YOU!!
