A Mother's Job

Cancer.  It is the worst 6 letter word anyone can hear in a diagnosis. It is life changing.  A journey.

3 years ago, when we got the call my focus was on saving Matthew’s life. We are so blessed that in 9 moths this will be all behind us and now we have been thinking about life after cancer.  Is there life after cancer? And, is it different? For Matthew’s sake, I hope so.

Oddly enough I have great respect for cancer. So much so that I took a job working for a company who manufactures much needed drugs to combat cancer.

So while Matthew’s journey down this road is nearing an end, mine will continue until there is a cure or I retire. A mother’s job is never done.
