Emma was a lady in her mid 30’s, she had a lovely daughter named Rachel. They lived in Brighton. Emma was weak in terms of health issues, she had cancer. Her husband passed away at a young age which caused a lot of trauma in her life. She only had Rachel in her life. Rachel was indeed an ideal daughter, which every parent wishes for.
One fine day, when everything was going right, Emma fainted all of a sudden. Rachel came rushing from her room to see her mother lying lifeless on the floor. She panicked and checked her pulses, she didn't seem fine. All she could do was call the doctor. The doctor came in and checked her. After some time the doctor announced that Emma lost her battle with cancer. Rachel fell down, tears were streaming down her cheeks. She hugged her mother and cried. “Mother, I'm a wreck when I'm without you, I need you, I need you to call my name and be proud of my successes, look at me mother, wake up!”, she screamed and shook her. It has been almost 2 years since the incident. Memories with Emma and the dream of her to become a successful person, that her mother had always wished for, is what kept Rachel alive. She was already about to give up looking at the state her mother was in. But she never gave up, she kept going on and on, for her mother, for all the promises that she made, she had to do it. 
Now, after five exact years, Rachel Davidson is known as the most successful businessperson, her name was all over the UK and she was a great influencer too, with millions of followers. If she had given up at that exact moment, she wouldn't have been able to achieve what she has now.
