My Mom

I’m sitting in the hospital as I type with my mom who has terminal cancer.

They just told us she doesn’t have much longer left.

It’s so strange…to know that I won’t have a mom soon.

I feel numb.

I know that whatever happens is God’s plan. And I know that my mom believes in and loves Jesus, so I believe that we will meet again.

But at the moment…I’m hurt. I’m so sad for my dad and for my daughter who grew up with her. I never had the ideal relationship with her, but my daughter did. I’m sad about the relationship we won’t get to have. My parents have been married for 40 years. They grew up together.

It’s such a weird feeling knowing what’s coming. I know that everyone will die one day, but for something like this…how do you live normally with this in the back of your mind? How am I supposed to go to work tomorrow and leave her here?

Pray for my family please, we definitely need it 🥹
