Description

I wanted to dedicate this photo to my mom. My mom died on November 18th, 2005 due to Leukemia that caused several problems for her. She fought it for 9 years and over those 9 years my mom fought diabetes, Leukemia, removal of her colon and blood clots. But in the end, due to 2 major seizers that she had that caused brain damage, my mom lost her fight. But she gave the disease one more fight and she was always strong through the whole thing. She loved dragonflies, butterflies, ladybugs and me of course as I am her only son, the only child she could ever have. It

Even it's a while ago but my heartfelt condolences with the loss of your mom who fought so well! Especially on celebration days the empty place might be felt the most painfully, but it's good te reminisce the things valuable to her and the special experiences with the one who brought you on this earth! Take care, Shannon! sigh
