Mom's Struggle

Two Nights?????????

Mom has to stay another night in the hospital, and I don't quite know what to think about that. I love my mom, but I'm kind of tired of her being sick and of having to take care of her all the time. Apparently she's staying another night because she has what's called a PBC. It's pretty much skipping a beat in the regular heart pattern. I also have that, but I've had it since I can remember. Yeah, I'm defective.
My dad pointed something out to me tonight before he went down to Madison. He says I've become bitter because of all of this. Maybe I have, but how can I stay the same??? My mother is battling cancer, and I've had to grow up really fast within these last 9 months. I'm still an adolescent. I want to do things that are NORMAL for my age. I don't want to have to give my mom shots all the time or to have to rub her back while she pukes. I want my normal life back complete with love and breaking up and laughter. The Bible says that laughter is the best medicine, but whenever my mom laughs, she ends up puking. How's she supposed to get better if she can't laugh too much??? Just answer me that.
