It's ironic that I wrote about LOVE yesterday, when I honestly wasn't thinking about today being Valentine's Day! Well...how appropriate. I woke up with love in my heart and gifts from the heart. One in particular I must share with you. Among the wrapped gifts, the cards and chocolates, was a plain piece of binder paper that was folded in half. I noticed that Johnny had it in his hand moments earlier. He said that this was his gift to me. I opened up this paper and moments later there were tears streaming down my face. I asked him if I could blog this, and although he shook his head in disbelief, he said I could. Yes, this is personal, but I want to share how much love is in my family...
MOM
I am your son and I love you
I wonder about you while I'm at school
I hear your thoughts
I see your determination
I want to find a cure
I am your son and I love you
I pretend it doesn't bother me
I feel your pain
I touch your beautiful bald head :)
I worry when you worry
I cry when you're in pain
I am your son and I love you
I understand that I will never understand what you're going through
I say what I mean
I dream that you are better
I try to make you laugh
I hope you will continue to fight
I am your son and I love you
Do you see why I would want to post that? It's beautiful.
Johnny - I will NEVER stop fighting!! And although you do it when I'm not around, thank you for reading my blog son, it's for you.
Happy Valentine's Day everyone ♥ Peace to you all!! Love, Genie

ReplyDeleteWow....this is really something, coming from a 16yr old boy. I am proud of Johnny for taking the time to express his feelings and having the courage to share them with you. Genie, you are incredibly blessed. Thank you for sharing this with all of us.
ReplyDeleteHi Genie! You and your family are such an inspiration. I wanted also to let you know again how much Jon and I loved seeing you and John at Super Bowl. I'll keep checking in from time to time, and we are keeping you in our hearts and prayers. You are going to beat this, and believe it or not, your hair will grow back. Love and peace to you.
