Mom.

Here is my mom. I snapped this picture while visiting for a few weeks in January. Now that I'm back home in BC again, I feel dreadfully far away. Mom had a few good days back then. This photo was taken on one of her better days.

Now, six weeks later, she's gone through several chemo treatments. Trooper she is, to yield to this recommendation from the medical staff in the first place. Chemo is anything but pleasant, and in Mom's case has definitely proved to be true to form. The side-affects have presented themselves in the shape of many unexpected and upsetting symptoms. I admire Mom for how she's warriored on, and patiently suffered through it all. Until today. She's had enough.

We'll all support her, whichever decision she makes.

And although we do not know what lies ahead, we'll continue to trust in the One Who does know.

Thanks to all of you who have prayed for us. Please keep praying.
