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

Denise,
Very sad to hear your news, but as we all know that there is an emotional rollercoaster we all ride. We are all hear for that ride with you. I know you will beat this with the fire that you had before. We never know how strong we are until we are faced with something that makes us strong. Hang in there our prayers are with you.
Suzanne
