i have a beautiful friend who is a mother to three; two boys and one girl. all late teens. she is married and takes care of her household when she'd done working for the day. her boys play h.s. football and her daughter is in college. she never misses a game or event.
she is very ill. type 1 diabetes has caught up with her and she's in kidney failure. she's only 40. it's likely that she won't see her kids get married; hopefully she will get to see the youngest graduate from high school in another year.
constant doctor appointments, lab tests, blood draws, finger sticking and more dominate her life. she never feels good. always tired.
yet she ALWAYS is concerned about everyone else. always asks how you are doing. always asks if there is anything she can do for you .. to make your life easier / better. always has a smile on her face.
i love you my friend. you always make ME smile. you always are a bright light in the often dark parts of my world. you always remind me that i have a lot to be thankful for, without even saying a word.
you are an inspiration. and i want you to know i'm here for you - no matter what. 💜💙
