this week has been busy. life doesn't stop just b/c your mom is having surgery. i've found myself on the verge of tears many times this week. it's weird how one week you haven't even thought about crying and other times you'll be at chik-fil-a fighting back tears. mom's surgery went well. she is home today, but still has a long way to go. i know that mom hates being sick, and that she wants to be well asap. she will have her port put in for chemo in 3 weeks. i can't imagine knowing that in 3 weeks i'll have to start chemotherapy after a titanium rod being put in my neck. even as i write this i fight back tears. it hurts for me to think about my mom in so much pain. she is a strong woman. i hope to be as strong as her one day. although that may be unattainable. i can't imagine knowing i have terminal cancer and still persevering through these times knowing that unless God performs a miracle this disease you are fighting will kill you. through all of that, mom treks on. i love her more for that. i know that everyday i'm able to hear her voice is a blessing. i hope that i can remember that everyday. i know that mom's road is long, and the road for our family is going to be long as well. God is still good, and he is still gracious. He does not faint, and He does not grow weary. I'm glad b/c i have been weary all week.
