"Happy Mother's Day" to my mother I haven't seen in 45 years

"Happy Mother's Day" to my mother I haven't seen in 45 years.

Robert Vegas Bob Swetz would like to wish his mother a "Happy Mother's Day"

It has been over 45 years since VB has seen his biological mother. And the lady in the photo below is VB's stepmother Dorothy Gilbert that passed away in the year 2010.

VB was working on a large construction project when his stepmother was dying of cancer. VB's sister had mentioned to VB that she was so far gone, that there would be no reason to fly to the Midwest to see her before she passed.

To this day, I wish I had flown to be by my stepmothers bed when she passed away.

For any of you that have the opportunity to spend Mother's Day with your mother's, you are very "Lucky"

Vegas Bob doesn't get to spend Mother's Day with his mother ;o(

"Enjoy the moment and please don't forget to tell your mother how much you love her" ;o)

Great Stories/Movies of "Cancer, Sickness & Death" (Thank You)

Robert (Vegas Bob) Swetz would like to personally thank all the people that have written Stories about "Cancer, Sickness & Death."

Not because Robert likes these subjects, but because Stories & Movies of "Cancer, Sickness & Death" are so moving and can really open our eyes about why were here. Every time I read a book or view a movie on this subject matter I just want to visit with my family or jump in a car or airplane and travel somewhere new ...

Why are we here on earth? To Live, Work & Die?

I am going to have to say (NO)!

I believe we were born into this world to Live, Love, Share, Learn, Travel, Care, Reproduce, create Peace and do what ever we can to make this a better place to live.

Last evening I watched a very touching movie about a sports player that was going to become very famous. Before he became famous he became sick and his body started to fail which in turn changed his life and his families life completely. 

The photo (above) was taken at a family wedding ... The people in the photo are ... Dorthy Swetz, Nu Nu, Sherry, myself and my father. Dorthy passed away in 2010 from Cancer that she had been fighting for 30 years, "God Rest her Soul"

Up until her last day on Earth Dorthy would pretend like it was her last day everyday. Dorthy would travel and do what ever she could before she was taken away to a better place. Our whole family could not believe that Dorthy could ever last 30 years fighting cancer all through her body, Dorthy was a very strong woman with a very strong "Will Power."

So a little reminder to all of you reading this story ...

Life isn't about Work, how much Money you make, Anger, Jealousy, Hatred, Murder, Stealing & all the Negative Things in Life.

Life can be Long for some, Short for others, or grab you very Quickly and take you away in the "Twinkling of an Eye"

So Enjoy your Time on Earth, Travel, Love one another, STOP spending so much Time at Work, spend more Time with your Loved Ones because ...

"Your LOVED ONES won't be around forever"
