Message from Jessica - November 4th 2007
Over the past year my mom has devoted herself to my recovery. She has let everyone know about me and my ups and downs. She has been an example of faith to so many people. Now it is my turn to tell you how great my mom really is.
She is always thinking of others. She always checks to see if I am comfortable and if I need anything. This is so much a part of her daily routine that I know that all my needs will be met even without asking. Through all these months of recovery, mom has attended every therapy session. She has become my number one cheerleader. Because she has been to every therapy session, she could be a therapist on her own. She knows when to push me and when to lay off.
She is always cheerful and has a good attitude about meeting our family’s daily needs. Anyone who knows our family knows that this can’t always be fun. When I am feeling discouraged or down, she knows just how to lift me up and she even comes shopping with me when it is not her favorite thing.
My mom always looks for the good in things. She is positive about herself and others and makes the best out of the hardest situations.
To sum things up, I’m lucky to have her as a mom. In my eyes, there is no better mom!
