Girls, I have a boring old fashion vs function question.

Haha, sorry. I come off a bit emotional, because that's the way I connect to people. I will be careful. 😊

Yes, my mother really does have qualities that are amazing, qualities I never really noticed before she got surgery, got rid of a brain tumor, and came back to us. I witnessed my ultra strong father have his first panic attack while she was in surgery. I wish I'd been able to break through the barrier that formed as her brain tumor grew, closing her off from us. But broke through she did, by the grace of God, imho. Not all of us have been so blessed as to find the problem, root it out, rule out "irregular cells" aka cancer, and heal enough to go on to contribute to the household income, as well as care for her mother and dying father.

I see the empathy in her I never knew came to me -from- her. Perception is crazy. Reality is even more unbelievable. But then, I pray for miracles, small and large, where it concerns those I care about.

Stay kind, Elandra.

@KayraJordyn i thought all of your replies we re very nice. I could sense the sincerity- and love -if not respect in them for your mother and the post.

Stay sweet.

Thank you, Elandra. You too!

@kate21 That's literally what she said.
