Re: 5 Years Out
Hi Lexi,
Congratulations!! It's a bittersweet time, giving our children wings. Happiness and heartache all in one! They'll always be your babies! It's a new chapter for you all. Enjoy your milestone and his! My best to you and continued thanks for the hope and support you gave me early on in my diagnosis. Sept 18 is 1 year for me!!!
Leslie
