I’m Trying Not to Think About It

Hello! It’s been a while since I have written anything, and I figured today was as good as any to try to get back into it. If you know me personally, you know that our family is going through a bit of a rough time. If you don’t know me, I’ll let you in on the details of our most challenging summer thus far. My past blog posts have detailed some of my mom’s health issues. She is a cancer survivor, and through it all she has always remained positive, strong and able to push through even the toughest of things that were thrown her way. But in May she faced some challenges from which she could not bounce back. My dad was unable to continue to care for her at home, and so we had to move her into a place that would be able to give her the best care possible during what will be the last portion of her precious life. I don’t use this word lightly. It is a precious life, whether it’s the beginning, the middle or the end.
