Happy Mothers Day Duchenne Moms and Grandmothers EVERYWHERE♥

Tomorrow, Friday May 10th I will be presenting the Mothers Day Issue of THRIVE. I bring it to you with great bitter sweetness as most of you already know this is my first Mothers Day I will not be hearing my son say, “Happy Mothers Day Mom, I don’t know what I’d do without you.” I am mixed with dread, fear and even a bit of excitement all rolled into one. After all who doesn’t like to be recognized and thought of by the ones you love and who love you in return?

My fear and dread comes from not knowing what my emotions will do or if they will over rule any happiness the day will bring. My excitement stems from I know my daughter, my husband and other family members will honor me. For this I am truly grateful for and I truly feel loved. I know I will get through this Mothers Day with I am sure a few tears, prayer, laughter and yes, even some sadness. I’m sure I will be caring around the tissue box. Just know I will continue to thrive-through-tears anyway.

Now back to the subject of this May 2013 Thrive issue. I am so excited to announce the feature cover article being about  Duchenne mom and kindred spirit Cath Jayasuriya who’s dream to climb her childhood mountain with her kids turns into Dusty’s Trail Summit of Borneo. Dusty’s Trail is an inspirational documentary about her son Dusty as they face the journey of Duchenne together. Her mission is global awareness for Duchenne!

Also a brand new section to take over the note from the editor and publisher is “Letters-2-Luke.” Although this first letter is from me, my hopes is the Duchenne community will write short 150 words mini letters to Luke as well.

DuchenneMOVEMENT

What is the Duchenne movement? I pulled this definition off of dictionary.com they had something like 17 different definitions but my favorite one is this. “A diffusely organized or heterogeneous group of people or organizations tending toward or favoring a generalized common goal.” Our goal being a cure for Duchenne; while living and giving the best possible life to our Duchenne children and families.————————————————————————————
