about a week after the reading of the will we had the funeral. mom was devastated. she cried throughout the whole service. when we buried him they asked s o each put a photo in the grave with him. the idea was mine. i thought it would help mom move on. she hadn't been able to stop grieving for more than a week. we sold our house to move in with mom. the house deed was transferred into my name. i told her that she could stay in the house. she gave us the master bedroom, but requested that she have the bed in the room on the main floor.

"mom you'll get through this." i said encouragingly

"i won't be able to marry anyone else as long as i live." she replied sadly

"you can marry anyone you want, mom." i retorted lovingly

"not without comparing them to your father dear." sheacknowledged

i sat back thinking of my on mortality after talking to mom. i didn't know what i'd leave my kids and husband. i couldn't stand knowing what was going to happen. the kids and zack needed to be taken care of. i called the family attorney that night to talk about my options. he said i could write a will now or later, but the best thing to do would be to get life insurance. i called a life insurance company. i got a $300,000,000 life insurance for each member of the family. the kids can't have beneficiaries until they're 21. i had mine and zack's beneficiaries set to the kids. they don't get the money until they're 18. no one, but my mother knew about the policies. i didn't want zack or the kids to know, because i didn't want them to know that breast cancer runs through the family. i had a breast exam on monday. they had found a tumor on my left breast. i was getting a biopsy done on friday. mom knew about the test and she knows about the biopsy.

                                                                          -friday-

my mom brought me to the biopsy today. she was crying the whole way because she had a feeling that it was breast cancer. they told me the biopsy would take no more than an hour. i was passed out for the entire procedure. when i got back to my room they had stitched me all up and put a bandage on the incision site.

                                                                       -one week later-

                                                                     *ring ring*

"hello dr. vape." i answered.

"Jacki, this is dr. holfsteam. the biopsy cam back positive. you have breast cancer stage 1." dr. holfsteam replied.

"oh okay." i said wilst breaking down.

" we'd like to start treatment next week. you have the choice between chemotherapy and radiation therapy." he said sadly

"i'd like to do chemotherapy." i said.
