There will be an answer...

This is for my mom who is terminally ill with breast cancer. She was diagnosed in 2004 and has been battling it since. She told me 2 nights ago she was given 6 months to live. She was told this information by her doctor, 5.5 months ago.

My mom and I never got along very well until the end of 2007. Living with her made every moment a nightmare, and I'm sure I did the same for her. Now we are closer than ever before, and it's a shame I didn't mature enough sooner. I was never a great daughter. I was rebellious and stubborn (I still am) but she tolerated me. Of course, it has been extremely hard for my sisters and I to watch her suffer all this time (I can't imagine what it'd be like to actually be in her place) and I have barely any way to escape other than to paddle and play my guitar.

I refrained from covering any Beatles songs simply because I believe I'm not worthy yet. They're my favorite band and this is my favorite song. So, I decided to dedicate this song to her.

I am going to do a 60km walk around Vancouver, Canada in an effort to raise money for breast cancer research. Please support me by visiting this site: http://www.endcancer.ca/site/TR/Events/Vancouver2009?px=2824943&pg=person...

Edit:
My mother passed away at 9:00am in St Paul's Hospital, Vancouver BC. March 20th 2009. There will be an answer... we just have to find it.
