I can honestly say it was the best of times and the worst of times．I was joyfull

I can honestly say it was the best of times and the worst of times．I was joyfully  36  my first Child at the same time that my once-energetic mother was   37  her battle with a brain cancer．

For ten years，my courageous mother had fought，but none of the operations or other  38  had been successful．Finally，she became totally  39  unable to speak，walk，eat or dress on her own．As she grew closer and closer to death，my baby grew closer and closer to life．My biggest fear was that their lives would never  40  she and my baby could never  41  each other．

My fear seemed  42  ．A few weeks before my  43  date，mother went into a deep coma(昏迷)and doctors said she would never  44  ．So we brought her to her own house．As often as I could，I  45  her about the baby moving inside me．I hoped that somehow  46  inside，she knew．

On February 3rd，at about the same time my labor(分娩)started at hospital，the  nurse at her house told me the  47  news：Morn opened her eyes，sitting up and smiling．I asked for the phone to be  48  to Morn’S ear．

“Morn，you’II have a new grandchild!”

“Yes!Yes!I know!”

Four words。four 49  and beautiful words!

For the next tWO miracle weeks after I brought Jacob home，she gave US joy，smiling，holding Jacob and speaking to the family in complete  50  Then she quietly slipped back into a coma  51  and was finally free  52  the pain forever．

Memories of my son’s birth will always be   53  for me，but it was at this time that I learned an important truth about living．  54  both joy and sorrow are lasting only a short time，and often intertwined(相互纠缠)，love has the   55  to face both．And love can last forever．
