My mom lived for two years with a brain tumor, and did well untill the last few weeks of her life.This a picture of her the week before she passed.All thru the chemo she never lost her hair and constantly bragged about it and made fun of me (I,m bald).She also refused let me take her picture alone I had to be in it.So I set the timer and this is what I gotI miss her like crazy.I love you mom.

Your words in the description drove me to tears. :'( It's great you two had a good relationship it seems, with her teasing you like that. My condolences to you for the loss of your mom.
