My Hero, My Mom

In 1989, my mother was diagnosed with breast cancer. I watched her as she went through her radiation and chemo treatments and the strength that she had during that time. For 2 years, she fought her battle, but ultimately, the cancer won. I lost my Mom in 1991. I didn't realize at the time what all she went through or the strength that she had and how much she was my "hero" until 2 years ago when I was diagnosed with breast cancer myself. I realize the strength that I had dealing with my own diagnosis came from my Mom. I miss her terribly! I love you, Mom. You will forever be "MY HERO!"
