My Mom turns 80 in February God willing. Dads been gone for 18 years, and we were sure she would waste away.But she surprised us all and lived in thier home until last spring.
2 years ago we thought we were losing her due to a medication mix up, but she bounced back .She is a tough old bird, and continues to surprise us every day.
I drove to Ottawa yesterday morning, met up with Brother at my sisters place. She picked up mom, who had no idea we were there. When mom got out of my sisters car and saw me standing there, the tears in her eyes spoke volumes of the love she has for me.
At 57, i am truly blessed to have my Mom still alive and well and there when i need a hug.
God Bless Moms
