Beautiful tribute to your mother. What an amazingly strong and selfless person she is.

Thank you, I'm in awe of her in so many ways. I've never known someone stronger, and I can't wait to give her everything some day.

This is a really great story that you've got here. I'm happy for you though.

Thank you, that really means a lot to me.

Thank you so much, that's really kind. I completely agree, I'm just glad I saw how much she loved me through the whole process eventually because some people never do.

Thank you, I didn't even think anyone would read this let alone be impacted by it the way they have. It really makes me glad that I decided to share it after all.

The power of this platform I tell ya, this is the kind of content that makes a difference, brave of you, and your mom, all the best bud

Yeah, I actually really love Steemit so far. Thank you again, my friend.

Wow! I felt myself tearing up while reading that. Thanks for sharing. It is our CHALLENGES, rather than our accomplishments, that truly define us. I'm glad to know you both are living well after going through all that.

@panopticon You are such a powerful writer. This is so much better than the stuff on the front page. I realize it's 6 days old already so it's unlikely to be seen again and the only reason I found it was a name drop in #payitforward but still we should try to get this one more exposure.

Awesome work. I'd like to say I didn't cry a little, but I'd be lying.

Just saw your reply. Thank you so much, I really appreciate your feedback. Maybe I will repost this later to see if it can get more attention, thank you again for your kind words.

Excellent, be careful of a repost until it's older than 30 days. @anyx has said cheetah will call reposts out as plagarism. I talked to him about it and walked away with the feeling that if it's original author content and it's older than 30 days, then it's safe. But just wanted to give you an FYI.

Just saw this, thanks for the advice, I didn't know that. I'll give it a while!

By the way, you have an awesome blog... I definitely will be following you!

@panopticon Thanks! I'm following you now as well!
