Ever since my mom was diagnosed with her cancer, I could see our lives slowly but surely spiralling down; What made it worse was that I really couldn't do anything about it. I was eight or nine years old when she was first diagnosed, so of course I couldn't tell the doctors off everytime they refused to give her the proper help she needed, because at the time, it really wasn't my place. As the time progressed, we have endured alot; We fall down, we get back up, we fall down again. One minute, we think we are getting our big break, and the next minute, we fall down, hard. She couldn't work, so unfortunately, we live off of disability checks each month. We make it work, you know? Me and my mom prayed that God would help us, and he's heard our prayers, he's answered our prayers.
----------We moved to Mississippi in the fall of 2007 because my mom needed fitting help with her illness. Once we make the move, my mom is getting the help that she needs; everything is great. Until, my uncle [who we are living with] just flips the script & treats us like dirt. He apparently dislikes us alot and I can honestly say we haven't done anything. He wanted us out of the house, and that's fine. We've got us an apartment in a very very nice area near the beach for a really affordable price, monthly. We've met some great friends at our church, not to mention that my mom's illness is getting better day by day; It's like she's already cured. What can I say? After so many years, everything is falling into place and I'm loving every minute of it!
