    What I find the most difficult is when people start talking about "how hard it must be for me". Realistically I know it is but with a lot of prayer I'm able to stay pretty optimistic about everything. Until I start listening to other people discussing how hard it is for me and then I find I get depressed about my life listening to them. Right now its just easier not to discuss mom with anyone.
