Re: Brain Mets &%$#$!! :(

Damn, what terrible news Denise! I am so sorry to read your post but I know that you will beat these brain mets!! You, me, and everyone on this board are Warriors after the battles we have faced. Now my fellow warrior, go pick up your sword and kick the crap out of those brain mets!

Love and prayers,

Jessica
