She has been my mother's best
friend for 37 years and is one of the most amazing women who helped make me the
woman I am today.
My Aunt Linda taught me the
beauty of raw cookie dough, finger foods for dinner, acting like a lady, the
"just right time" to use the F word (still struggling with that one)
and not letting a bad boss define you.
She held my hand when I
went to the fertility doctors to try and have children. She was there guiding
me through adoption classes and when I had to quit because of the diagnosis.
She held my hand and my mother's as the three of us sat in the doctor's office
and we got the news of the cancer.
Aunt Linda has been my source of
strength and my mother's "sister" through good and bad times. I just
wanted another audience to know how wonderful she is and how thankful I am for
her and her love.
If you have a woman in your life
like her, then thank them, tell them and share your story with the world.
Love one another.
Respect one another.
Lift one another.
