Letter to my Mom

Jun 03, 2021

Dear mom,

I want to thank you for everything you done for me from give me life, be there for my school event, took care of me when I was sick, taught me how to be mother to my wonderful boys, and just having my back.  When i was at lowest point of my life being over 600 lbs you took care of me from  grocery shop, cooking for my family,take boys to school and sporting events, even helping me bathing. But one almost important thing you do for me was paying for life saving gastric bypass surgery that save my life and give me life again, and be one of biggest cheerleader from helping me with my diet, my exercises, and support me through my journey to get healthier. Without you I don't know where I would be im so. Thankfully for having mom like you. I can't thank you enough for what you done for me and the boys.

Love your daughter,

Jillian
