For your Mother’s Day wall:
My mom has a real independent spirit which was broken when she had to have help to do laundry and taking the garbage out when she had a hip fracture from a fall as a cna and med tech. I was grateful to have the opportunity to give back to my mom who helped me start my faith journey and who had supported me when I was a single mom. Praise God the doctors said she healed like a twenty year old and learned that there were people even her own apartment building that were ready to help her. Happy Mother’s Day Julie Smith Hubbard!
