This story of one woman’s mother loving her unconditionally despite adversities comes to us from TMAH12 in Canada

In my opinion, Motherhood is the greatest gift and and self rewarding journey bestowed upon a woman. My Mother is my idol and unsung hero. All through my life, she has been a true inspiration, and loved me unconditionally.

In conjunction with various other sicknesses and adversities, my amazing Mother is fighting the late stages of progressive Multiple Sclerosis. She was diagnosed in my grade 7 year, and to this day refuses to be bound to a wheel chair or bed. She is/has always been there for me as a guide, mentor, protector, teacher, angel, best friend and the biggest fan for everything I do. Even though I veer away from burdening her with my issues, she insists on being there to support me any way she can. She accepts me for who I am, and forever encourages me to reach for the stars.

I am a Mother of a precious two and a half year old angel girl. It is my goal to emulate my Mother's skills and teachings in my own parenting. It is my wish that my daughter will know the eternal love of a Mother, as I feel from mine. My daughter is named in honor of my two greatest idols, my Mother Lynne and Celine Dion. Her name is Celynne, a beautiful combination of the two women I admire most in my life. Mom, I am everything I am "Because You Loved Me"
