Sweet Jessica, I am sending you hugs right now as you try to digest this all. I know this journey has such ups and downs and those downs are really low. I sit here tonight really relating to what you are saying. I am also begging you to keep the faith and breathe through this all. It stinks I know, Jessica but one day at a time will help you get by. When this all sinks in and is digested, I am certain you will do that research, gather that ammo, and fight with all of your might. I am sorry you feel sad and maybe a bit defeated but so happy that you know where to come when you feel this way. We are here for you and if I could shoulder some of your pain, I would. Please keep us updated. Walking besides you.>>Believe51
