As a mother of 2 sons, I am crying watching this. I love my sons more than life itself. I pray she goes into remission and can raise her son to adulthood. I know many who have lost their parent at a young age and I feel their pain. I’m the type who wants to mother everyone. I’m the mom who had all the kids over for make your own pizza nights & sleepovers. Sadly my sons are older and don’t have children. The last place we lived had lots so I “adopted” them. I’d go to Target & buy those toys from Bullseye’s playground and leave it on their doors so they’d get a surprise when they come home from school. They’d get so happy. I miss them. Where I had to move to, we don’t see any kids. It’s isolated. Lots of dogs running loose, a few cats and some wild pigs.
