My Mother
As I write this, my husband and I are getting ready to fly back to Minneapolis. My Mother-in-law was just diagnosed with stage 4 non-small cell lung cancer and is in intensive care. We are in shock, as she has never smoked, but we want to hold her in our arms and tell her how much we love her. She is the kindest, most giving soul I have ever chanced to meet. She has travelled the world to places like Cambodia and Nicaragua and Brazil to help build housing for the poor and minister to their needs, sacrificing everything for the disadvantaged and putting her needs last. This world is truly a better place because of her. I am asking for your prayers, my sisters, as you hve always been there in times of need. Her name is Carol, and she has been a gift from God. Thank you for being my family all these months, I am so blessed to call you my sisters and brothers. With my love to you all, Vickie
