Hang in there sweetie, may the sun shine on you always, friend. Hope your have a special weekend. Love & Respect, Mckenzie one day at the time.
Hug
Hugs to you! What a tough, no make that impossible place to be. RA is such a tough disease, but when it eats away at relationships also, well that makes it even harder. I know nothing can touch the pain where you hurt, but here is a very gentle hug.

Hug
From Mckenzie
May 25
Thanks for the kind words on helping my daughter. Going to school today, in order to see if there will be a problem or not with her failing her semester, but I do not think so since we have been in contact with them since the beginning, and she as been working on her school work since being off. Thanks again for your support. Mckenzie one day at the time.
