A Love Note to My Mom

When I was a little girl，I would often accompany you as you modeled for fashion photographers. It was years later that I finally understood what role modeling__21__  in your life. Little did I know you were_22__  every penny you earned to go to__23__ school.

I cannot thank you enough for__24__ you told me one autumn afternoon when I was nine. After finishing my homework, I wandered into the dining room where you were buried__25__ piles of law books. I was  __26__.Why were you doing what I do—memorizing textbooks and studying for__27__？ When you said you were in law school, I was more puzzled. I didn’ t know Moms__28__be lawyers too. You smiled and said，“In life, you can do anything you want to do.”

As young as I was，that statement kept___29__ in my ears. I watched as you faced the___30_of completing your studies, starting companies with Dad, while still being a_31__ and a Mom of five kids. I was exhausted  just watching you__32__.With your words of wisdom in my__33__mind, I suddenly felt unlimited freedom to dream. My whole world__34__.I set out to live my life filled with__35__，seeing endless possibilities for personal and professional achievements.

Your words became my motto. I__36__found myself in the unique position of being either the first (woman doctor in Maryland Rotary) __37__one of the few women (chief medical reporters) in my field. I gained strength every time I said, “Yes, I’ ll try that.”

 Encouraged by your__38___， I have forged ahead (毅然前行) with my life’ s journey, less afraid to make mistakes, and__39__meeting each challenge. You did it, and now I’ m__40__ it. Sorry, got to run. So much to do, so many dreams to live.

Last year, my mom found out that she had stomach cancer. I thought she’d be fine after she got 　36 as she was diagnosed(诊断)early. She had an operation to 37 a third of her stomach to stop the cancer from spreading. And for two months she went back and forth to the 　38 . But I never visited her because I was 　39 with school abroad and didn’t fully know what was 　40 . After her treatment, she 　41 working because of her poor health and ate a(n) 　42 diet. I visited her in the summer holiday. She seemed better, so I forgot that there was a possibility of cancer 　43 .

　When school 　44 , I said goodbye to my family. My mom called me from home every day. 　45 in early November, my dad called instead. He sounded 46 .

　 “What’s wrong? How come Mom’s not calling me today?” I asked. After a few seconds, he said my mom’s cancer had returned and spread throughout her 　47 . Her survival rate was less than 30%.

　 Looking back to when my mom first got cancer, I 　52 how stupid I was for not appreciating her. I feel bad that I didn’t visit her in the hospital. I should have cared. She’s my mom. 　53 , it’s not too late. She recovered. I’ll try to spend more time with my mom 　54 . I hope you will do the same for your mom. Spend some time with your loved ones 　55 it is too late.
