This evening I found out that my mother who lives out of state has Stage 4 cancer in her brain, bones and lungs. I’m scheduled for a cesarean birth with my first child on Thursday and have no idea if I’ll be able to see my mother before she passes which would mean that my daughter will never meet her grandmother. I guess I’m struggling with the idea of having birth and death so close to me at this time in my life. Life is something else ladies. Bless all mothers out there ❤️❤️❤️❤️
