Meet Jackie from the Bronx, NY. Jackie and Be YOU Bloom's host, Jessica, came together at the worst time of their lives, as their mothers were at the end stage of Alzheimer's. They met at Calvary Hospice and shared nearly three months together when Jackie's beautiful mom Alicia passed on. Jackie shares the raw truth about the difficulties that can arise amongst family, feeling like she had to give up as her mom wasn't getting any better, and how she found her way to acceptance. As Jackie says, "I thought I would die if my mom died," but she has healed, and feels that her life after has been blessed, with a little extra help from her angel, her mom, who seems to be looking after her. About mid-way through the conversation, Jackie shares something with Jessica that brings them both to tears, something Jessica never knew about the impact of their time together. She concludes with words of advice that guaranteed will make a valuable difference in your life. In celebration and honor of Alicia, Jackie's mom, whose birthday is January 30th, the date this episode was recorded.
