My mom is having surgery for breast cancer on Friday and Im scared. She means more to me that I could possible express with words. I cant help but think of all the years I caused her and my whole family so much grief wth my drug abuse in the 90s and how she and my dad were the parents to my daughter that I should've been.
She is the best possible mother anyone could hope for but Im not the son she deserves. I really hoped to be able to provide for my parents before my daughter ever turned 18 but Im still depending on them and it shames me.
If I spend the rest of my life trying to be as good to them as they have been to me and my daughter it would be a life well spent because they deserve so much than I can give.
I just had to try to put this to words
