I want to apologize for not posting anything for a while. Over the last few month my mom fell ill and I helped out in various ways to care for her. She seemed to be on the road to better days and suddenly passed away on December 30th. I was very close to my mom and can't imagine what the future or my life will be like without her. She was the one person who could always make me feel like everything was going to be alright, no matter what. She was my hope. I will miss her deeply and I hope she's up in heaven giving me the strength I need to get through these tough moments. I am so lucky to have had such a wonderful mother.
