Earlier this year Mom decided to undergo to a surgery to remove the cyst in her right boob because she said that sometimes it hurts. The cyst was successfully removed. After my Mom's surgery, the doctor advised her to rest at least 2 to 3 months so her body is fully recovered. But my Mom didn't follow what her doctor told her to do, she do the household chores after 3 weeks of her surgery even if her surgery wounds is still fresh. Days passed, she still doing the household chores but we, my sister and I are helping her. One day, lunch time I came home from school and saw Mom sitting on the couch and told me that her wound is bleeding since the morning. I rush to my Aunt's house to tell her what's happening to Mom cause I'm scared to see blood. My Aunt accompanied Mom to the hospital to know why her wound is bleeding. After they went home from the hospital Mom told me what the doctor's findings about her wound that bleed. Mom told me that the doctor diagnose that she have a bre.ast cancer. I felt very sad that day when I learned that Mom has a cancer. Her doctor said that she needs to undergo again to a surgery immediately, a masectomy, so the cancer cells in her bre.ast won't spead in her system. We dont have a choice but to follow what the doctor said. People say that it's not easy to cure cancer because it is a long proccess of treating this kind of disease and we will pay very big expenses. We're not that rich to sustain the long proccess treatment of Mom so my parents decided to sell our house to have money for her to be treated immediately. Now our family is residing at my grandmothers house. Mom now had undergone in her second chemo theraphy. Her black shiny long hair is now gone. I salute her for being so strong dealing with her sickness. I love my Mom so much and I don't know what will happen to me if anything bad will happen to her. :(

Hi Jii! I know how painful it is to have a loved one undergo such a condition. But you have to be brave for her as well. She can draw strength and courage from you, her family. There are so many cancer survivors nowadays. I hope your mom will be able to surpass this challenge. Be there for her.
