Day 314 - one more day

I was asked to write about what motherhood means to me.

Tonight this is what I came up with.

314 days ago I was diagnosed with Stage 2 Breast Cancer.

I am 41 years old.

I am a wife.

I am a mother.

I have 3 young children.

Graham 7

Harper 5

Harris 4

I have never fought to be something so hard in my entire life.

It took 10 years of trying to have my first baby.

It has taken 16 rounds of chemotherapy, 3 surgeries, and 33 rounds of radiation to keep me alive.

I would do it all over again.

Simply to be their mother for one more day.
