Despite what my mom has been through, she acknowledges that things can be worse and even though it may be very difficult for her to get through the day at times, she still finds the strength to do so. This interview was just as much for her as it was for me. One role was not more significant than the other; we both played key parts in this experience. This interview was about listening and more importantly, understanding.
She fought through stage 3 cancer and by the grace of God she is now better than ever. The moral of this is that no matter what comes her way she never gets terrified of anything she never lose faith. My mother is a really strong woman. My mother is my hero because she’s a hardworker.
LIving with cancer with dignity I am not ill. My cancer is just crazy !! My body is my love letter and I am the author of my ownhealth !! Cancer!
I watched my mother fade away slowly as she was battling pancreatic cancer. I looked after her everyday as best as I could; however, the feeling of my eventual solitude was unbearable.The thought of my mother’s imminent demise made me feel like my heart was being continuously stabbed. Watching my mother suffer was one of the hardest things I have ever had to go through. After her passing; something changed in me, darkness filled where love once was. I always knew deep down, that my mum was not going to make it; however, knowing this did not make it any easier.
She is inspirational, strong and passionate in what she does and works for, as I strive to be myself. However, I believe one of my best qualities is my caring nature towards others, which lets them look to me for help or guidance. I often take on the “group mom” persona, this entailing being willing to help those around me with any problems they have, physical or emotional. People tend to trust me and my guidance, and listen to what I have to say.
This essay appeals to the reader 's emotions, especially if the reader has cancer, or has someone close to them in their life who is battling cancer. I thought the author’s attitude was appropriate when discussing her life, and she presented her claim in a unique way. She put a new view into the reader’s mind of how to cope with cancer, and how to become a new person because of your disease. She concludes the memoir stating how she is bald again, and dreams of having her long, wavy hair back, but for now she will focus on her new hair tattoo. I think this is a perfect representation of how to cope with cancer, and how to transform into a new person for the better because of
Out of the many events of my life that have molded me to aspire to be a physician, a humid August day in 2003 would be the pivotal moment that introduced me into the path of medicine. My father, brother, and I had been working on the front of our house to add on a porch, when my mother pulled up from receiving a routine chest x-ray due to her having influenza, and even as a nine year old child, I could tell by her expression as she approached us that something had gone terribly wrong. With anguish in her eyes, she said, “They found two spots on my lung, and they say it might be cancer.” and in that instant, my world began to collapse in on me. All I understood about cancer at such a young age was that it killed people, devastated lives, and
problem, if you cut the tumor it will grow again. Cancer is the result of a body that is nutrient deficient and is overloaded with toxins and a suppressed or overloaded immune system. If you look back at the last hundred years you will notice that the numbers of death caused by cancer has tripled. The difference between now and our ancestors is the food and exercise. They always ate fresh food and exercised because they were always working and moving around. We are overfed but we are malnourished. Our body needs minerals and enzymes to heal. Obesity is the second leading cause of cancer (christbeatcancer.com).
More and more people have cancer these days. It is almost like the plague that no one wants to talk about, and it keeps getting worse.
She is a single parent that has two children and three grandchildren. My mother is without a doubt hard-working, supportive, and caring. My mother is a hard worker. My mother’s hardworking influenced me a lot. My mother’s dedication has inspired me to be successful.
My childhood and my innocence came crashing down when my dad told me the worst sentence that I’ve ever heard in my life, “Your mom has cancer”. There is nothing, no amount of mental or physical pain you can inflict me with, that could compare to what I felt in that moment. My dad gave us the news after my mom was taken to the hospital in the middle night because she could not breathe. So while we were hoping for her to breathe safely, we get hit with an even worse situation.
There have been many people in my life who have impacted it both negatively and positively, but no one has had an impact in my life greater than my mom. This woman is just amazing in my eyes, right from the beginning because of the way she raised me, if I had children I would raise them the same way she raised me. The person she is, in general, has really had a great effect in my life, and also how she has always told me about the struggles shes had in her life from the ones I didn't see to the ones I have seen with my own eyes. I believe if I didn't know my mother as well as I do, she wouldn't have influenced me as much as she does.
I did not realize how dramatic the change would be in our relationship with my mother. After her return home, we both struggled to find our roles in the house and that was a huge challenge. The arguing between my mother and step-father became more obvious and illustrated just how different things were at home since my mother’s departure.
I choose Mother’s Day because I am very close to my mother. The news article I choose is a primary source, as it describes a relationship with a daughter and mother with Alzheimer’s. The article starts off with the daughter talking about what her mother did and how she lived an eccentric life. Next she goes on about how the disease started and how it impacted her and her mother. Subsequently it ends with how bad the disease became and how even through the darkness of it, there will always be a hope and a light that you see in their eyes.
My mom had to grow up very quickly and help take care of her younger brother and sister. Because of what my mom went through at such a young age, she has gained a tremendous amount of strength emotionally, which has helped me out at times when I was feeling down and needed someone to be there. Generosity, is the second characteristic
