I am a former U.S. Marine, honorably discharged, I work a full time job at the Veterans Hospital in Cleveland because I enjoy it, I work one day a week for an Armoured transportation company, Wholesale houses part-time, created and manage a website that generates extra income, and go to college part-time.
Thats alot you may say, but its totally easy to juggle once you get used to it. I do all this for 2 people, my Mom and Step Dad. Mostly my mom though. My whole plan was and still is to turn my wholesaling business, website business and my new Vacation business I just opened last week into 6-7 figure businesses so I could give them the life they dreamed of and never got to experience.
Well that may be down the drain now. Not for my businesses but for my moms. She had discovered a few years back she had diabetes. Ever since then she has been slowly getting worse. Then two years ago she received a small cut on her arm that turned into a massive infection poisoning her body. With having diabetes it is alot harder to fight off a small infection compared that to you and I.
Needless to say alot of her vital organs are slowly shutting down. To top it off she is only 50yrs old and now is in hospice. She has an amazingly strong will to live and fight this but I am still unsure of the outcome. I'm flying down to Florida tomorrow 3-30-13 to stay with her for a few days as any son would do. I'm hoping, praying, and wishing for some sort of miracle. Miracles do come true in some shape and form and have witnessed them as odd as that may sound.
My advice to anyone reading this is this. Life can be short and you don't know how long you or your loved ones will be here. So If they are your "WHY" you MUST make shit happen right away. Do not procrastinate. Screw it who cares what anyone says or thinks about what your doing. As long as you believe and stay with it, things will happen.
I don't procrastinate by any means but I wasn't pushing myself as hard as I knew I could. Now it may be too late to give my mom the dream life she deserves....but who knows things may turn around for her. Never give up hope on anyone, especially yourself.

Mom, I love you always!
