On this day five years ago my beloved daughter lost her battle with breast cancer. She left us all with such beautiful memories of her. She had such a sweet sounding voice that always had something positive to say even in the most stressful times. Her big brown eyes caught the attention of so many people and even during her last hard fought battle in August of 2009 they remained so beautiful. Big and bright.
Her children were the most important in her life and that is why after grueling radiation treatments she would come home and make them a big dinner, help them with homework or just sit and listen to them as they discussed their days events at school. She worried about Loreal and who would be buying her school clothes after she died. Also her oldest son Mathew who was rebellious at times and just couldn't cope with his mom being sick. Shane was emotional when he would sit next to his mommy and Jeannette made sure to comfort him. Conner, the youngest was not old enough to understand what was really going on but all he knew was that he wanted to be with his mommy.
I miss Jeannette so very much. Time has gone by too fast and it feels to me like it was just yesterday that she died. I cope by writing about her on this blog. It actually has saved me from really going into deep grief.
Free from pain, my baby. Free at LAST!!!!
