the end of this blog is the beginning.
and i am learning each day that there is no end.
blame is a slippery thing. i blame nicotine. mom blamed herself and her "distaste for doctors in anything other than a social setting." cancer is incredibly beatable. some is preventable. some is not.
hedge your bets.
 if you smoke...try to quit. it's really hard. the tobacco industry has designed it that way. wear sunscreen. eat vegetables. see your doctor. mom quit smoking over seventeen years ago. early detection saves lives. it could have saved mummy.

a year ago, today, we were all in a house full of love taking care of mummy. at the time, it was the saddest and sweetest time of my life. since then, things have become much more sad and life has continued to be sweet. it's a strange holiday season without mummy. one thing remains...there is still a house full of love on hornbeam drive. i will go there on sunday and we will celebrate together and miss her every single minute.
