My Mom

My mom was diagnosed in 2008 and it a total shook to me and younger sister. My dad was the major provider from April 2007–2012. My mom who was my inspiration started to show an anger side and start screaming and left me scared and in tears. These plus physically changes occurring in front of three daughters and her oldest granddaughter made us take a deep breath and to cope situation by situation .
Now l wish there were podcasts that could have assisted us in the emotional and physical in the periods of 2007 till now.
My mom passed away in December 2012 from Cancer and Parkinson’s. l miss so much from hearing her even she couldn’t talk at the end of her life.
