My Hero : My Mother As A Hero

she got older, she came to feed off of others validation. The youthful beauty, that others so longed for, became her downfall.

That day when I returned home from school, my mom’s boyfriend called me asking to speak to my grandmother. Typically, Gus would call my grandmother himself if he wanted to speak with her, which was rare. I found out about my mom going to the hospital from my grandmother after that phone call. The doctor told my family that a stroke afflicted her in the middle of the day. My mom confused the date with her birthday, had trouble getting words out and remembering our family member’s names. The nurse had to take her for walks periodically and exercise her legs and arms because they were weak. Seeing my mother in this condition made me appreciate my mother and everything she does for me tremendously. However, I was terrified for my mother’s health.

As we grow up throughout life, we hold onto many heroes as they have impacted our life. Looking into my personal life, my hero consists of my mother, Darla Linden. She defined a hero as “a person stepping up in a situation without thinking they also are in harm 's way”(Linden, Darla). Throughout my lifetime my mom has been there for me since day one and has helped nurtured me.. She sacrifices many things for myself and for my family by providing us with our daily needs. I can always count on her to point me in the right direction by pursuing my dreams and wishes. I admire her caring heart and faithfulness the most because she would drop anything instantly to help someone else in need. She supports me in all of my extra curricular activities and motivates myself to bring out my full potential. I get inspired by her courageous character by never backing down to a challenge and always finishing through. When I asked my mom who she picked as her hero she said, “the service men and women of all branches who fight for our country”(Linden, Darla). They provide us with safety by sacrificing

Christopher Reeve once said, “a hero is an ordinary individual who finds the strength to persevere and endure in spite of overwhelming obstacles” (Google). Now, you’re probably thinking who is he; didn’t he die back in the 2000’s? Yes, he did die in 2004 but he is still best known for his comic book Superman but I’m getting off subject. Let’s talk about this quote and why I chose my mom to be my superhero. A hero, in Christopher Reeve’s words, is any kind of individual who finds strength and the power to pass through tiny and big obstacles. Do you believe that? Do you think that’s a good definition for the word hero? I do, because my mom does that every day. My mom is my superhero because she is remarkable.

A hero can teach many life lessons, morals and various other things. A hero is someone who can be seen as a role model or hope to people. A view of a hero is different to everyone. A hero can save someone from a fire, they can be there to give support or even enlighten people. My heroes may differ from another person writing this same paper. The title hero is given to people for multiple reasons.

Mothers are heroes since they are selfless. Mothers show selflessness when they give up so much of their time to care for their families. Mothers also show selflessness when they give up so much of their time to care for others that may not

I started college at age 18, but shortly after life interrupted my higher education. One of the biggest setbacks in my academic career was my father having a massive stroke. He was in several hospitals over a six-month span. My mother once said that our family motto was “if one of us suffers, we all suffer”. This motto became a family joke during this difficult time and helped us get through it. My

The person who I consider to be a hero is my mom, FBI Special Agent Jill Stillman. She is more than a typical mom because she protects and serves our country everyday, but first makes sure to be up at 6:00am to wake me and my brother up so we can dress, eat breakfast and get to the bus stop. She always puts us first before herself along with my two dogs and cat and then she gets ready for work. I consider her a hero because after the 9/11 attacks, she helped capture and eliminate Osama Bin Laden. She has investigated criminal and counterterrorism cases and early in her career, she found evidence against the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing subject Tim McVey to send him to prison. She has been a Special Agent for 25 years and volunteered to go

My Systemic Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis; that’s what set my mind to being a Medical Lab Technician. As an optimistic freshman, I had a mindset that my 4 years of high school would go smoothly with flying colors; I was taking my first college class, AP World History. However, mid-year that mindset changed. I had been having major knee pain for 2 weeks with high fever, it was agony. My parents immediately took me to the hospital because my primary physician thought I had Kawasaki. As we were waiting in the emergency room, I could feel my parent’s consternation. I’m the first born with one younger sister. I can’t picture how distraught my parents would be if their first child passed away at such a young age with so much academic potential. Along with that, it had been less than a year that my grandmother passed away so my mom was truly

Struggling to open my eyes, I see a groggy image of my mom going around my room, turning off the lights, and putting my favorite blanket on. She sits on the edge of my bed and puts a comforting hand on my shoulder. "Go to sleep." she whispers, then gently steps out of my room, closing the door behind her. My mom does nothing but care for others. As a mom of four, she's got a lot on her plate. Yet that doesn't stop her from making me feel like the only person on Earth the matters. She's a nurse and makes all of her patients feel the same way. One of my favorite people to be around is my mother which is why she is my Michigan hero.

I have a lot of heroes to compare to my mother but I’m going to compare her one that I like the most. The hero that in comparing her is Spiderman. Spiderman he is a great hero because he loves his family and also helps a lot of people. My mother is the same she cares about us, her family and she also cares about people. Also they both put a lot into the community. Also these two people have superpowers because they are both strong but on their different way. And threw out this essay im going to explain my point of view on both pearson, Spiderman and my mother.

In 1859 Henry Ward Beecher said, "the mother’s heart is the child’s schoolroom." I believe that statement because of experiences I’ve had with my own mother. I have learned more about life from her than from my 15 years of schooling. Over the last 20 years my mother has taught me many valuable lessons just by being a living example of compassion, thoughtfulness, and generosity. She is an angel that has protected and carried me throughout life.

Heroes; something we all aspire to be, but easily recognize in others. Wait, how do we define what makes a hero, a hero? A hero is one who is kind, courageous, smart, determined and selfless. They often do what is better for the greater good and not themselves. This is seen in both Greek and Modern heroes, whether it is cutting off Medusa’s head or defeating the Riddler, they show these qualities in one way or another. We also see these qualities in parents, true everyday heroes. While they may not have super strength or the ability to fly, parents are the ultimate heroes in our lives, for they love for us without judgement and will always be there when we need them most. My father, William Romero, is a hero since it takes a true hero to

This left my mom with seven kids to raise by herself. Meaning one on one time was rare, because my mom is not a superhero and could not be in multiple places at one time. Grief left my family and I in a place where we did not know what to do, but we eventually got out of it, and continued on with our life. We always remembered the hard working parents we had, and the hard working mother we still had. I am resilient and got back on my feet and continued to attend school, graduated elementary school, and will soon graduate from high school. Although, I have gone through many difficulties it has made me work harder as an individual and choose my career choice at an early age. Being that I was very into the heart at a young age, and my father passing from a heart disease, I always knew I wanted to study cardiology, and will someday soon become a cardiologist.
