My dad always loved the mountains. He said he wanted to live in Colorado because of them. My family has been traveling in order to get to all the states. My mom and dad came with us on most of those trips. I remember going out west with my dad. He LOVED everything! He got to see so much and had always dreamed of traveling out west. As he was loving it most of us thought it was boring. However, we still had a great time seeing the different states. We got to explore Mount Rushmore and Yellowstone National Park. My dad also went with us to see a baseball game in Washington. We had a great time. Traveling with my dad has always been a blast. I wish he could have made it to all states but even getting to the ones he did was amazing. 

I've been where you are. It's stressful and scary! I'll be thinking of you guys. I hate that people can't even take their time to grieve before bill collectors are  knocking at the door. It's going to be a long journey but I promise you that this to shall pass and you'll make it to the other side. Much love to your family. Hug your mom for me.
