The tears slowly ran down her cheeks. More tears, much more tears flowing ever so slowly down her cheeks and dropping one by one down her lips. There was nothing else left. Her battle with breast cancer had advanced. The cancer made sure to keep her in constant pain. A pain worse than any human person can imagine. Excruciating pain. Absolutely nothing could stop it. The tears in her big brown eyes would cloud her vision but nevertheless, she tried to look at me. She said to me, "Ma, please tell my children that I fought so damn hard to stay alive. Tell them I went to all my Chemo appointments and radiation treatments. Tell them I was the most compliant patient in the world. Tell them I wanted to live to see them, to hold them and be their mommy. Tell them I am sorry that I lost my battle. I am sorry that they lost me.
I wiped the tears with a soft cloth. The tears kept coming in full force. She felt so bad leaving her Loreal, Mathew, Shane and Conner. She cried.
My beautiful big brown eyed daughter. How I miss her.........
