This picture of my mom was taken Jan 25/2007 in Punta Canta for my 30th brirthday. I was very blessed from my Mom and Step-father Cliff to get a present like that. I had a great 30th birthday. I put this on my blog because I want everyone who reads this to know how much I love Sandy Richardson-Craddock-My Mom.
You see when she was younger she was burnt as a child so she has a scar on her back from her hip to her shoulder blade. Then she was married for 12 years and that ended in a divorce. She had to work 3 different jobs when this happened to keep us afloat. As I was growing up I never went with out. My mom provide for me as if there were 2 parents in the house when there was only 1. Then she was 39 and got thyroid cancer and had both her thyroids removed. She now takes thyroid pills to act as if she had a thyroid. Then she had radiation. Then in March of 2006 she had brain tumors removed. If you were looking at her it would be the front right, thats where the tumors were removed, but you can't tell unless you feel her head. Her skull had to be removed so they could get to the tumors and it was replaced with a hard pieces of plastic.. I think there were 3 tumors that had to be removed. The tumors were non cancerous, Praise God. I can testify to the Power in prayer. I am not strong like my mom but I do know that I love her with all my heart. We don't have the best relationship but I want her and all who read this to know how much I love her. She is the strongest person I know and I wouldn't trade her in as a mother for anything. She is suck with me and I am stuck with her. Love ya mom! Ps: I tell you all this not to have pity on my Mom but I want you to know how strong she is and what she did for me. This the short version of what she has done and continues to do. Someday if you ask, I might give you the log version.
