I love my mom. Seriously. I know that everyone loves their mom but I really love my mom. Seriously, I think I was super lucky when I got assigned to my mom. I actually like her as a person. She took time off work when I had my surgery to travel here to Oklahoma and help me. She waited for me to have the surgery, then she waited for me to wake up for the surgery. That took an entire day. She swabbed my mouth with water sponges. She helped me walk. She helped me go to the bathroom. She showered me. She dressed me. She removed staples from my incision. She was pretty much amazing. I 100% thought I was going to die when she had to go home.
I actually like talking to her too. It is not a chore to call my mom. I feel bad sometimes because I talk her ear off for an hour and a half. We talk at least twice a week. Whenever something funny happens I want to call her and tell her about it. If I see something that I know she would like or something she would want to see, I take a picture and send it to her. Like a little kid, I want to share everything with her at the end of every day.
My mom gives selflessly and loves wholeheartedly. I am the luckiest person in the world when it comes to mothers. I could not have a better one. I love her to the moon and back.

I love you, too Mari. Someday when you have children, you will see how much you can love that little person. You continue to love them even when they are older and may do or say things that may hurt you. You will love them as you see them grow up and become their own person with their own very distinct personality. You will only want the best for them and for them to be happy. Your decision to do this surgery was a positive one and one that I think will do a lot for you in the future; not just leading to a healthier you but a happier you. Your self-esteem, your outlook, energy, everything will be affected positively. I am EXTREMELY proud of you. I know how hard this decision was for you and the pain and discomfort as well. But you know the end result will all be worth it. I want you around for a long, long time....otherwise, who will take care of me when I'm so old I can't (take care of myself)....Nikki might put me in a nasty old-folks homes!
I'm just kidding, Nikki!
