My Mum passed away this week after a year long battle with Lymphoma cancer - needless to say really, I took a hiatus from training as we all went through the journey of her last times and then tangi and then finally putting her to rest.
I had my first workout today and it was a strange experience - as the August 3rd fight is a Cancer fundraiser I was so looking forward to Mum being able to watch it while she continued on the road to recovery - but it wasn't to be. Oh well, nevermind Mum I'm still going to do it for you and others that have passed away from cancer or are currently fighting it.
No amount of pain I will endure will compare to what you endured in your fight - this upcoming match pales in comparison, regardless of the outcome.
I'm missing you so very much already Mum - Arohanui ki a koe, mo ake tonu atu xoxoxo
