I’m a single mom of three children. all I have are them to have a home that we know will never have to give up on the bills stacked up when you have a constantly make trips for medical to know the burden of having to pay 1 million bills, the heartache of knowing what we might have to leave behind if something was to happen to me I have stage three breast cancer. I’ve had two surgery and one left to go. Now that my story is not done. I have major nerve damage from all the chemotherapy. I did two months away from my children doing radiation in San Francisco and I didn’t see my kids this whole entire time. I’ve had to have friends step out of their zones to take care of my children, which has been one of the hardest things people have ever had to do. My children have had to be without me and not been close to me, which was a toll on them as well I’ve had to look in the mirror and see a completely different person to wonder if anyone would even love me to know that this is how I get to end my life look in the mirror and wonder is this it at least I get to live with my children to show them that this is life all I want to show them that at least we get to be together in the end I want to give them a life, not full of stress if I’m only here for a little bit, I want to live happy and give him a little bit of happiness. I know I am blessed. I get to spend a little bit of time with them each and every day now that I am home, I can only think of the happy things that I get to cherish this has been a journey and one that I do not wish upon anybody every day I’m just thankful I get to wake up to their smiles
