We are strong, independent, protective, and driven. We are the electricity that keeps the lights on and the washers of the laundry when their children are too lazy to do it (only because we care, not because it is our “duty”). Unfortunately, this is not how women were always seen. We have had to fight hard

As I walked through the hospital doors, my heart began to race faster by the second. I walked towards my mother 's room, praying that everything was okay.
