Relay for Life

This past weekend was Relay for Life. It is so hard to believe that only THREE years ago, my Aunt Lynda was the speaker for it, and now she is in Heaven.
I hate that I was not able to be a part of Relay this year.
 My cousin, Spencer-Aunt Lynda's grandson, at the Relay for Life.
 This was Mothers Day, almost two years ago.. I miss this woman! She is one of my inspirations who led me to want to be a Child Life Specialist. I remember wondering how her grandchildren were handling her death and dying experience. I remember seeing the regression that she was going through. I remember seeing family members torn to pieces over this experience (including me). But the number one thing I saw was a FIGHTER. She fought this cancer long and hard! That is why she is a huge inspiration in my life.
