Tell me the greatest thing about your mother!

I love my mother to death. She is the absolute greatest woman I know, and I idolize her. She has had 3 kids, all girls, been married twice (16 years and still going, yeehaw!), has medical problems up the wazoo and is always in pain, but she still keeps on trucking. She is strong willed and big-hearted, and she has always been there for me. She took a lot of crap from my biological father she shouldn't have had to, including verbal and physical abuse, and she gave up her prominent modeling career to have me, even when my biological father wanted her to have an abortion (nice dad, huh!). She put up with years of crap from me, being a more than typical teenager and result of a broken first marriage, but she still loved me and stuck by me through it all. Now, even though she has Fibromyalgia, Arthritis, Rhuematoid Arthritis, and a metal plate and screws in her neck from 3-4 herniated disks and surgeries, she still gets up every day, in pain, takes her 8 different medications, and runs my younger sisters back and forth to school, pays bills, runs errands, takes care of as much as she can for the family, cooks, does laundry, grocery shops by herself, and loves our family to no end. In my eyes, there will never be a greater, stronger, more loving woman in this world, or in my life, and when she dies, it will be the most heartbreaking day I will deal with (unless something happens to my son). I could never tell her I love her enough, or show her enough. She sits on my highest pedestal! Tell me about your mom.
