Juaren,
With you in spirit certainly though I am not there in body. You know that our God doesn't give us more than we can handle and with God, WE CAN DO AND GET THROUGH ANYTHING! May God fill you with His peace and carry you through this difficult time. May He shower you with every blessing you stand in need of now and forever more. I love you all and I know you know it as I try my best to show you what you mean to me. Be blessed and NEVER hesitate to call me.
