I don’t do that many super personal posts here. But today is a special occasion. Today is my mother’s birthday – she’s turning 55. I believe this year also marks 6 years since her lumpectomy and radiation treatment. Last year, my father passed away of cancer (30 yrs as heavy smoker) just 3 months shy of his 55th birthday, so that makes Mom’s birthday this year even more special.

Here’s to the American Cancer Society as well – Proud Sponsor of Birthdays!!

Hug your mom today if you can for me – I can’t (She lives 2,000 miles away!)
