What a difference a few months can make.....
What a surprise l had .............mum turned up from Spain to see us before we go off to oz...........shes between her treatments and l think her doctor would have a fit if he knew what shes been up to in the two week break before her radiation treatment........mums the word!!
Today has been rather emotional, particulally for Claire who is so attached to my mum, she rarely left her side.
Mum mostly wears a wig when out and a bobble hat in bed; l really didn't think l would cope with seeing her like this but she just gets on with it all saying that there are a lot of people worst off than her.
Just 6 weeks worth of 10min daily treatments of radiotherapy to go I'm praying that she will get the all clear and life will return to normal as soon as poss.
Mum told me she prays regulally, she attended church with me and previously asked me to send her a bible the week before she turned up, she has had a J.Witness lady visiting regulally of late and l'm praying that she won't be influenced in the wrong direction.
Its a case of remembering who's in charge !!
It was really good to see her and she house will seem very quiet in the next few days........

What a lovely surprise for you to see your mum, it always amazes me the strength and courage shown by people going through such difficult treatment, just look at that lovely smile, an inspiration to us all!

I pray God will continue to speak and give strength each day for your lovely mum,

God Bless your dear family,

Hi Tracie,

Thanks for sharing this photo of your Mum. Helen's right - she has a dazzling smile.

It must have been quite a surprise for her to visit you but hasn't she got a lot of character.

I shall pray for God's healing power and protection to surround your Mum during these days (and the rest of the family too!!)

God bless you, Tracie.

:-)

Yes your mother's smile and sparkling eyes show she has a zest for life, and a very positive attitude. That is such a blessing. It must be so special for you to have time with her. It seems her joy would be contageous.
God bless you all.
