Interesting timing of your post. I lost my mom to lung cancer 12 years ago now and she never smoked a day in her life. She was only 58 and today is her birthday. I think about her all the time, especially during this time of year because she LOVED Christmas time. We had so many good times as a family, but she has missed out on so much. I have so many good memories of her, but so much of it seems so far away since she died before digital cameras and cell phone videos were super common. We never got to capture many of our family moments like people are able to today so easily. I only have my memories and lots of out of focus, yellowed pictures, but I wouldn't trade them for the world. She only lived to 58, but I like to tell myself that I think we did more together in that time that a lot of people do that live to be in their 80's. We were a very close family and I lived at home for years after high school when I was going to college, so we got to spend a lot of time together and I am very thankful for that.
