Bio

I am a mother of 5 children. My three oldest children are from my husbands previous marriage. His first wife passed away from brain caner. We have been married for 18 years and have two of our own children. My three oldest children are scared that since their mom has had cancer and passed and now their dad has cancer, they are afraid for their own lives! I am trying to be strong for them. Crazy at times.
