The fight to continue on.....

This blog has been a wonderful way to help get through some of the toughest and most challenging experiences of my life and it wasn't my life that was fought for. Although the life threatening health challenges were fought valiantly and won, living everyday for mom is a fight. This is a fight that she is now conscious and aware she is fighting. To lose memory of nearly 2 months of life and wake unable to do the most basic of tasks is disheartening. She is working hard but coming back to life with additional challenges is discouraging. Mom had to learn to do basics as simple as swallowing and is working so hard at getting strength enough to care for herself and her basic needs.

Sometimes it's easy to question why. Why would the Lord keep her here if there were so many more challenges still to be faced. It truely goes to show that Lord knows us each individually and what we are capable of. What a tribute to my mom. The Lord has great love for her and most of all faith that she can accomplish much here on this Earth. We love her and know that everything we have been through as a family is part of his great plan. We all have struggles in this life, none of us are immune. We are given the opportunity to grow and be strengthened by hardship. It's these things good and bad that mold us in to the person that we become.
