I was brought up as a Catholic and up until my teenage years I daren't question the faith. As I've got older, I found myself questioning my beliefs. With so many bad things happening, especially of late with my mother being ill with motor neurone disease, I've often asked why? Why do some people go through these punishing illnesses? If you or I were God, would we allow the same thing to happen to anyone? Despite all the above, my mother has kept her faith.
