Re: Courtney Needs Our Thoughts & Well Wishes
I agree with Karen- thanks for starting this post. Courtney has been an inspiration to me as well. She fights with such grace and is so grateful for every new therapy and treatment that presents itself. We can all learn alot from her. I will continue to pray for my dear sister, and hope that our words of encouragement can fuel her through this difficult time. And to dear Jay- don't give up, miracles do happen and Courtney is loved by many!
Kristin
