Hi I�m Gerry, Carol is my mom.

I have not written anything to this web site with my sisters and brother due to the fact that I was in denial. I could not accept that this was happening to my mom, I love her dearly.

I have been talking to her everyday and now that she is starting to accept it, I�m starting to also.

Now I�m writing you this to tell you what a wonderful mom she is. She is a strong lady; she helped us through a lot. She always tried to show you that every cloud has a silver lining she never wanted us to hurt, or to be sad.

While growing up with 6 brothers and sisters, and she was the only one working, she never wanted us to do without anything (even though she herself went without what she needed). She did that just to see us smile and be happy.

But while I was growing up, people would say that we were poor. But I thought I was the richest girl alive because of the love my mom gave us.
