V.H.L. love mom

Isn't she beautiful! You would never guess that she had 23 surgeries. It all started when she was four years old. She was such a character. She would always pose for me, even when I didn't have a camera, and I would pretend she was at a photo shoot. She loved to sing and dance for me, and I would make a big fuss over her. She loved to play office, with my brief case and papers. Her brothers idolized her. They were very protective of her.

One day I noticed that her right eye was slightly off, like a lazy eye. I asked other family members if they noticed any thing different, but no one did. I decided to take her to an eye doctor. This doctor was recommended to me, and he was very busy. We must of sat in that office for 2 hours, before we were seen. After looking in her eye, he turned to me and said, you need to get her to Wills Eye immediately, I think she has a cancerous tumor in her eye. And that was it. I drove home with her, trying to stay calm, and not look upset. I went into the house, and told my ex husband, we need to go to Wills Eye now, the doctor said she has cancer.
