Tender hugs to you, Noelia, your mommy, and your kids. Praying that your mom gets the feeding tube and finds relief; that your stress and the kids’ anxiety will subside, and that your entire family (siblings included) will be healthy. Thanks for trusting us with your mom’s and your story. 😘

Hugs to you! I lost my mom when I was 16 years old. This has set the compass and guided my decisions for my entire life for myself and my family. Thanks for sharing - we are here for you!!

Hi Noelia! I miss your everyday chatting with us! I love your new set up --- I must admit I am starting my on Eternal leather Goods cover - Pocket moleskin daily tracking! Moods -- and notes on the go! The cover is beautiful! The color is not what I wanted: dark brown, but it is a nice shade of orange and very bumpy and it fits beautifully the pocket daily! The moleskin paper is odd. The tomboy streaks, but I am ok with this - I think! This is a FUN journal to track anything that pops up: a quote I find when I'm reading on the Metro: I word I see that says: looked me up! Just fun stuff so the paper markings not too important! I love your Long videos but then again once a week... I know you have a busy life and the kids and your work keeps you really busy! I just wanted to say : I loved your update and sensitive story about your Mom and the care you give and the concern! Mothers are very special! I miss my Mother every single day. I have to laugh: as she told me "you will miss me when I am gone". She is so correct, She was my best friend : an artist violinist -- brilliant in math - an interesting conversationist, but the most important things she loved me! I was an only child and she and my Dad made me feel special everyday of my life! Cherished members Post us all your stories and the budget tracking --- I love the numbers game: everyday I track my expenses and I love numbers! Thanks again for all your sharings! Today has been bonkers at work -- kind of day -- lots of crazymakers ( I work IN LAW).

Noelia, thank you so much for sharing with us. The decision to rest or not can be such a struggle. I don’t remember the type of breast cancer my mother was diagnosed with more than 30 years ago, but it has a strong genetic marker (BRC1, I think). Her oncologist urged her to to ask that her three daughters get genetic testing. My inner control freak urgently wanted to get tested, and I did it right away without the counseling that was recommended prior to testing. Thank goodness my results were negative, because I don’t think I would have been ready to deal with positive results (and would not have wanted to burden my mother with news of positive results for the marker). At the time, the test could only screen for one marker, and now it can screen for multiple markers. I tested again about six years ago - with more thoughtfulness this time - all negative. And I’m happy to say that my sisters tested negative, too. We still get regular mammograms, of course. If you change your mind about testing, please consider how you would share your results. And again, thank you so much for sharing your story. Wishing the best for you and your family. 💕

Oh, honey, you are never boring! I enjoy your story telling! Bless your heart and your family. I am sure it is very scary to see your mom deal with her health issue and to wonder if you will have to struggle with that as well.

[@lilymayra8368]

Thanks for sharing the generic disease your family carries. I’m glad you decided to share.. very good information. 💖💖

[@marieee505]

You’re such a good mom. Whatever the future holds, your kids have your fierce love to carry them through life.

[@ipage_ata_time6517]

Thank you for sharing. ❤ Your courageous! I love your videos and I enjoy your bonkerieness but today’s video was a good reminder that we are all human!

[@shellychandler5583]

Thank you, Noelia! For sharing your story, for doing it as only you can do, bonkers and all! I adore you!❤

[@kathyla731]

I woke up today hoping for a video of yours I could watch!! Thank you for sharing your breakthrough. Every time you stopped to focus on stickers I was like “but what did the doctor say!!!!” I sincerely admire you!!

[@kimikobuford]

Thanks for sharing❤❤ ❤ prayers 🙏🏽

[@lkessler1]

Thank you for the video. I am so sorry about your mom, I can only imagine how scary it must be for you. As a parent, I can understand you wanting to know for your kids. I am glad through therapy that you found some peace ❤.

I always love your stories and your videos. Wish this one had been an hour. I've been binging your videos while I work this week and last because it's like having a friend sitting with me and keeping me company. Plus I'm working on my new rings setup and I wanna grow up and be as organized as Noelia! LOL I appreciate you sharing your story. I know it's very personal and weighing heavily. I know it can be super scary to know and super scary to not know. But as someone who lost their mom suddenly and unexpectedly (she was only 53) and not knowing health things that could impact me in the future - I would have to be tested. I don't know what genetic items she had (and my grandmother is passed and I don't have other females in that line to test or learn from) and not knowing how her aging and conditions related to that will be in my future as I grow older I wish there were things I could have known. And I would want to know so I could do what I can to combat it and defer it and handle it and be prepared for my kiddo. But I totally get why you would decide to wait and not get tested.

Wow, this was your deepest dive ever, I feel privileged that you trusted us with this family history. Also you command my respect in how you expressed & navigated the issues, they are difficult to say the least. I hope the release of the news was cathartic for you, maybe gave you reassurance in your choices hearing them back? Gotta say, as planner supreme you can think through complex issues & handle priorities & uncertainty. Also imagining you are keeping everyone else in the fam grounded & organised, so I hope they appreciate you!

[@colleen5236]

Love and prayers friend. I am really enjoying your longer videos. Bless your family.

Oh, Noelia. Big hugs to you.

Genetic conditions are running through my family as well. The men die before their 60th birthday. Most pass between 30-60 and some passed younger. From personal experience I suggest genetic counseling before you get tested. I’m positive for our family disease and as a female I’m protected a tiny bit because of the added X chromosome. My disease started progressing in my early 20s. My geneticist said my kids have 50% chance of having it. 2 of my kiddos are positive. I believe that early preventative measures helped me have the quality of life that I do have. It’s a personal journey for sure. I recommend therapy if you and your kids are positive to help you process and plan. Your kids will adapt. I understand the heartbreak as a mom all we want to do is protect our babies. I’m so sorry you’re mentally dealing with your ailing mom at an early age. Cute planner setup!!
