Re: Going through a difficult time
You are amazing and I can't help but cry right now. Your parents sound like they are an incredible duo and truly have a very blessed life. I can't believe what you have on your plate, but know that we are here for you and pray that you will get through this.
My heart goes out to you and your entire family!
