You are not going to believe this. I went to a Zumba class
the other night. It was my first time. As I was leaving, I was speaking with
another lady in the class. She was telling me that she had been attending the
class for about 2 or 3 years. During that time she lost her son. He was 28
years old. I asked her when he passed. She said, "October 2012." I told her that I lost my
son in January 2012 and he was 25. I told her I lost my son to cancer. She said
she lost her son to cancer. I asked her what kind. She said, "Osteosarcoma." I
know, crazy right? I could not believe it. I just turned around and walked
away. I started to cry and told her my son had osteosarcoma. She started to cry
and we stood there hugging each other crying.
I asked her if she had any other children, she said she had
one other child, a daughter, but her son was the youngest. I said I have one other
child, a son and Justin was my youngest. She said that her daughter had been
lost since her son had passed away. I told her Quentin had been lost since you
left. She told me that her son was diagnosed in 2005. I said this keeps getting
crazier. Justin was diagnosed in 2005.
She said it was in his thigh and knee, I told her it was in your lower
leg and knee. Of course we exchanged
numbers and plan to get together to talk.
It was crazy. It was like looking in the mirror.
I went to the next scheduled class and found out that the
class had been cancelled until further notice. It was like God had me in the
class just long enough to meet her. I said, “God what are you up to?” I guess we will just have to wait and see.
Crazy right?!!!
Until next time, I will always love you.
Mommy
