Lisa:

lovely poem, lots of hugs as a mother I can understand what you are going through, my mom used to cry every time she sees me, and ready to give all her inheritance to me :bouncing_off_wall: not a bad deal considering she is quite wealthy, when I used to cry and throw tantrum, she said many times I wish God had chosen her to have stroke instead of her daughter. Now 3 years post stroke I just want my mom to be very proud of me, and supportive of me.

I love you and all the moms. as always s*** happens but I would want people to remembr me or any other survivor oh she gave such a great fight, and not as a poor soul. who suffered adversity at such a young age.

Lisa,

That's a beautiful poem; thank you for sharing. Your love for Rachel shines through each verse.

(((((((((((((((((((HUGS))))))))))))))))) Lisa, It is so hard for a parent to see there child in illness.pain, fighting so hard.

Your love shines through and I know you and husband do the best and would grab the moon if it would help.

your love shines through, no matter what happens to our children we always wish it was us or it was something else not so bad, I 'm glad you are blogging. I have known a quite a few parents who also said why us so the answer is really thank you lord that rachel is still hrer, I have also known many who have lost there children and they also said why us.rachel is blessed to have you and her dad there for her. an we are all blessed to have you here.

An awesome poem! You can feel how it was written purely from your heart feeling what it feels. There is no greater love than a Mother's love here on Earth.
