I think I know how difficult that must have been for them or I may only imagine as I am lucky enough to never suffer their pain. I knew a very brave person who showed me how to push myself to the limits, to dream big and never give up, my mum. My mum showed me how to love even when I didn't know how to love, working hard, counting to 10 and sometimes to 20 when somethings feel too much. So mum you have inspired me to be a better human, a better mum to your grandson and for allowing me not to be hard on myself, for not being what we think the perfect mother should actually be like. Thank you for being you- Anna; a wonderful, happy human being. Full of ideas, dreams and courage. The most creative person I have ever known. You showed me how to take from life every day. Thank you for the knowledge that you have passed to me and my sister, as you always said, "that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel." It is 10 years since you left us to run in the universe as the world wasn't enough. You went back to become star dust and give your beautiful energy somewhere else. Mum, there is not one day I am not thinking of you, everything that you did, you did it for me and my sister. I see it. Thank you.
