"Life isn't about finding yourself. Life is about creating yourself."
George Bernard Shaw
We all have challenges in life. That is something that never seems to change. We often think, "When I get through this...." and when we do, another challenge seems to come along.
Some of you have read prior blogs about my mom. Mom is nearly 87 and she broke her hip a few months ago. We go her through surgery and rehab after a few trying months. Then she collapsed and was hospitalized to find other life ending health issues. She came home under the care of Hospice about 6 weeks ago.
I have cared for her every day for the past 35 years and this has been the most difficult experience I have ever been challenged by.
Mom is now 12 days without food and water and she was only 100 lbs at the start of this phase of life. I have always know I was strong and that I would find the strentgh I needed to get throuh any challenge I was faced with. I never thought things would get this hard. I have found strength I never knew I had.
Whatever life brings, I will rise to the challenge. I will reinvent myself!
