This is a copy of a letter Joce wrote to mom the night before her surgery. It was so touching to me as my sister is so wise and she has so much strength I thought it would make for a great memory in our blog for mom.
I am sitting here thinking about you and what you are about to do tomorrow and many things are going through my mind. You are the best mom and I love you so much! I am so proud of you and the decision that you have made to finally beat this disease before it got the best of you. It's a hard decision to make, especially when you are doing it to be proactive and not reactive. I should know! People still can't believe that I CHOSE to have a full hysterocomy at such a young age, but it was my choice and a choice that I am happy I made. I know it was the best thing for me. I have times where I am sad about it, but those thoughts are so few and far between that it doesn't really matter. You are an example for all women of strength, compassion and courage in everything you do. You know how much it's killing me to not be able to be there in the morning, but I know that school is where YOU want me to be. I just wanted you to know, as you go into surgery tomorrow, how much I love you and appreciate everything you have done for me. I could not even begin to tell or show you how much! Be strong and be excited for your perky new boobs you get tomorrow 
BTW Mom looks amazing already and her spirits are great! God is Good! All the time! All the time! God is Good.

I am so happy to hear your mom is doing well. I must say I'm not surprised, though. As soon as I started praying about this surgery I felt a peace and assurance that everything would be fine. Do you have anyone to help on Wednesday?
