Esther,

I am so happy that you are recovering nicely. What an inspiring post. I will keep you in my prayers that you continue on your path of healing and that you have a wonderful time on your trip Cancun.

Happy scuba diving! Be sure to take a disposable underwater camera with you so that we can see some pics.

Love, Hugs & God Bless,
Nicola
