A year has passed, since I wrote the tribute to my Mom, wishing her a Happy Mother's Day. It was a difficult year because my Mom fell and broke her pelvis in September, which required a long rehabilitation period. Thanks to her Doctor, Mark Pass, who assured her that she would recover and walk, again, she did. She was able to walk, again, only to face new adversity, losing sight in her good eye. Again, thanks to her Doctor, Stuart Green, an operation was able to restore her sight. Now, she is in a much better place, and is looking forward to her two granddaughters' weddings, my niece Elinor's (in July 2013), and my daughter Jodi's (in July 2014). On this Mother's Day, I plan to spend it with my Mom, and am happy she is still here with me to celebrate.
