Happy Mother's Day Indeed!!!!

You know you have finally let go of all your childhood resentment,anger when you can finally have the conversation you want with your mom and she finally understands you.Now many of you know that my childhood was anything but great and I have been so angry with my mom and dad.However i have come to realize that no matter what I can not change the past so why dwell on it.Do i wish that my childhood was different,i'd be lying if I say no as I often thought that.Another realization I have come to is my mom and dad love me and have always have,always will.If things where different I wouldn't have my two beautiful sisters or my loving brother.So why waste another day holding onto resentment?When life is soo short? An update on my brother he is going to be 21 in Sept and so far he has proven all the doctor's wrong.Although he is 15 years younger than me he is such an amazing role model.Yes he is terminally ill,has a feeding tube,rods in his back,a trach and a breathing machine and struggles everyday but he still has his humour and his handsome smile.I know he struggles within but you would never know it.My brother and i are in the process of writing his memoir,something that he wants to do.Not just to tell his story but to share with others what life is like living with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy.That there is life after being diagnosed.The medical choices that he has had to make and what other options there are.As well as the most important thing to my brother that what is life without faith?This is still his favorite song..,Mom said I never should have sung this to him.., oops sorry Mom we love you!!!!! Hope you had a great Mother's Day!!!
