A woman my mom works with has cancer and has been out of work for a long time. She recently found out she has to be out for longer but doesn't have enough sick days left to cover it. Every nurse on my mom's floor at the hospital is donating at least one of their paid sick days to her so she can finish her treatment -- and get paid for it. GMH.
When my mom was going through her cancer treatments and had to miss work the people who worked in the hospital lab with her did the same thing. It was great because at the time I was still in high school and my mom was bringing home half of our family income. My mom's co-workers also made her this little compilation book of funny pictures, happy memories, and inspiring messages. My mom passed away two years ago but we still have that book at home and when I look at it I realize how much my mom was loved.
Stories like both of yours GMH. I made a name just to comment on this, because it is worthy of a comment. Let that woman be in our prayers, and hope for the best... @#1, let your mother be in our memories. Just remember, she is still with you no matter what path you take. GMH.
