Hi sweetie!
I am not sure what to say to make you feel better. I feel so bad for
you. I wish I lived closer and I would try to help you. I just had my
third lap on the 23rd so I have a general idea of what you are going
through. All I guess I can say is that I will say a prayer for you. I
hope that helps. If you need to chat, I am home all day for the next
couple of weeks. Feel free to contact me.
