I was only 6 years old when my Mother found out she had Breast cancer. 2 weeks later it was my first day of school and the day of my moms surgery. I did not see her for close to 2 weeks after the surgery. When she woke up I seen the fight in her eyes That never left until the day she passed. She was and still is the strongest person I have ever laid eyes on. To this day I am amazed at how strong she was. Every time the cancer came back she just got stronger. I am so proud of her. Its been close to 3 years now that she has been gone but I will never forget you mom. She passed at the age of 43 with 2 kids. One 17(brother) and one 15(me). Life got hard but we learned from the best and I pushed on. Not letting anything stop us. I think she would be proud of her 2 boys. Phillip is in the army and Christopher (me)working 3 jobs to build a better life. If people can take anything from this I would hope you can take to never give up. It gets hard but thats just a test. So pass your test! R.I.P Darlene 1/6/11.
