Holy c**p, Katie Fowler and Hobbit child? I want them to die. This is soooo rude to post your c**p that no one cares about on a post about FRIKEN CANCER!

It's awful, her mum was only 45, it's so young. Kudos to this girl for staying strong and graduating!
Load More Replies...Me too! I was sure I was NOT going to cry. And then suddenly they came.
Load More Replies...When I scrolled to last photo my mouth fell open....she is so incredibly strong to treat her mother's death like this.
I lost my Mom to Ovarian cancer last year.... so I completely understand the pain that she must be feeling. With that said, I am so, so, so glad that she was able to capture these memories the way she did. They'll help pull her through the dark times, and hopefully help bring her peace and joy when she looks at them.
I just lost my mum to ovarian cancer. Her funeral was last friday. That smile has so many emotions to it. You're doing her memory proud, and makes those of us in the same situation find some extra strength <3
Damn who's cutting onions again. Great job, girl. Your momma would be so proud!
This is sad but heartwarming this truly shows a mothers love 💕❤ 💐💐💐💐💐
What a beautiful relationship with her mum. They're both so blessed to have had each other through such a tough journey. Off to hug my mum a bit tighter now
Only the body died but the spirit lives on as the Girl shows and knows with her smile.

Well that sucked. but that's a selfish thing for me to say, isn't it? Beautiful pictures.
i saw the last day of school 3rd year and her mom was hairless and i was like: uh oh. I know what happens next. the same thing happened to my grandma at a young age. she never lost ALL of her hair but it certainly thinned out.
Parents are there for a while with their children to allow them grow and be strong and deploy their wings. Your mom succeeded; She looks at you from heaven and will watch over you until the last day of your life. She must be proud and happy for you and will support you for every grief, cherry every victory with you. Trust yourself and trust that life will find its way....I wish you a wonderful voyage.
You have been blessed with a mother that loved you dearly, and she taught you about love, loss and strength. The wonderful memories you have of the time with her will fill your heart forever !!!
It's really sad. It's great though that she stays so positive. I don't like in the article before the pictures the writer felt the need to state the amount of likes and retweets it got. It seems like a very shallow thing to bring up. It's nice to see the effect it had on other people and her, but not the numbers.
Who cutting onions?! -.- My heart to this sweet girl never easy to lose a love one - makes me thankful my mom is still around after her cancer battle.
I haven't anything to say that hasn't already been said but this is so sad and yet so positive that it is hard not to want to tell you how brave you are and how proud your mother would be. The second you clap eyes on her bald head it becomes obvious that she has been very ill but the last photo still stuns. Bless you.
I am so truly sorry for your tragic loss. But the inner and outer beauty of your mother will live on in you. You are a remarkable and wonderful young lady and your mother would be so proud of you. Take care and God bless. ♥ ❀ ❃ ✿ ✽ ♥
Ugh...stupid allergies making my eyes water! Because I'm definitely not tearing up at all! =P
Sweet girl who loves,loved Mom!Your Mom is with the Stars now,and you're a Billion Bucks Babe!
Awwww sweetheart. I lost my mum at a young age. It never gets easy. Sending hugs! Xx
I shared this post with my girls and we may start this tradition with them!!! Because you never know???
Oh no, I thought she looked very pale in one photo before i scrolled further and saw. I'm so sorry for your loss. Keep making your mom proud
Your mom would be proud of you. This was a very beautiful story, and I hope you find happiness. We're with you!
Keep strong and keep your mother close to your heart dear . She will forever be there through all your life .
So beautiful and touching. I know that pain, of having Mom not with you. Mine was killed by a drunk driver. The last time I went to her mausoleum I sat there breaking tiny branches off until I had spelled out "I Love You" and left it on the step. Time does nothing but make me miss her more. I do love the memory's sometimes I laugh, sometimes I cry, its all ok..
Why am I seeing all these cancer stories all of a sudden? Well, thank you for sharing something so deeply personal and profound with us.
Dude really? What if your mom died? Would you still be saying that???
