Glucose on the Roadside!

As I ran the Rotary Cancer Run this Sunday, something so simple stopped me in my tracks!
A glucose sachet on the roadside. Without hesitation I surely bought it. Not because I desperately needed it but because it carried a memory I could never ignore.

You see, Mum always had one tucked away in her bag. Glucose was her quiet little companion. As it was something we later offered her in her last days before she transitioned to meet her Creator. In that small roadside purchase I felt her presence so strongly.

I have come to learn that grief hides in the most ordinary things like a roadside glucose. Then the untold story for how kits came in place as well as the race! I wish I had jazzed her all about it. But Hey! Am sharing it on here.
Today as I ran it felt like I was running for her. For the life she lived. For the battles she fought. For the pride she would have carried seeing me and my team standing strong for a cause so close to her story.

I am blessed for the time we had. And even in loss I hold on to grace. For the grace to remember, smile through the tears and to run with hope.

Many cancers. ONE race. 💪🏽Thank you to Rotary Cancer Run.
To those we have lost to cancer, we carry your memory with every step. 🙏🏽
To those still fighting may you find strength for the journey and know that you are never alone. 💜

TUHAME ❤️
