Mom. Mother. Mommy. Madre. Ma. It's one of the first words you say. It's the word you use when you're content, scared, or upset. I'm 15 years old. My mom died last year of a massive heart-attack. It is insane to think how much my life has changed. I lost a lot of things. My childhood, my innocence, some of my happiness, a piece of my heart. But along with that, I gained. I gained strength. You never know how strong you are until being strong is your only choice. Because a mother is one who can take the place of all others but whose place can never be taken.
