my mom is my best friend in the world. she's always learning, compassionate, kind, helpful, wise, and overall just a fun person to be around! i'm so fortunate to have a mom who is still in my life and plays a positive role in my own journey. when i came out as trans, she didn't kick me out even when she didn't know what to do. a few years later, her support saved my life as i needed to get a surgery i wasn't ready for that was caused by my own transition timeline (hormone therapy caused issues for me early on). she never once asked me if i regretted it - she could see how whole i had become. and since then, she has mentored parents of trans youth as well as provided support right to youth themselves. i'm so thankful for and amazed by how incredible this woman is.
over ten years ago, she was diagnosed with Multiple Myeloma, an incurable form of blood cancer. doctors didn't predict she would see many more years, stats showed survival past a certain point was practically impossible, and during that time, i started living as if my mom was always going to die. it could come at any moment, and to cherish every single day became my force. i even quit skidmore to try out mass art, closer to home, just because i needed to be near her during a hard time. thankfully, by some magical power, or maybe just my moms endless optimism (to adopt another gigantic bernese mountain dog 6 years into her cancer? wowow) that has kept her here today. she is doing okay. she is not dying. she is living. sure, she used to be 4 inches taller than me, but now i'm a few inches taller than her due to how the cancer affects her bones. it hasn't affected our ability to hug, adventure cross country, and make amazing farm fresh meals from her local farms. it hasn't affected how much i love and admire this woman. it hasn't affected her bucket list and all she wants to do in this life. mom, i'm so thankful to be one of your two sons. we are so lucky to have you. thank you for raising us. i wouldn't be here without you ??❤️❤️
