I just want to add that Dee has been a true angel to me in the times of my darkest moments when I didn;t know if I would make it through the next hour let alone the day. I can never thank Dee enough there are no words yet she understands what a TRUE friend she has become to me and I love her. Dee

A strong and caring woman who gives when there is nothing left to give. A warrior who never gives up hope. An anchor for our group.

I can't believe this beautiful and heart warming post, that has brought me to tears. You my darling friend deserve the thanks for allowing me to be a part of your family as well as being my inspiration and beam of hope. You have all done more for me than I can ever do for you. Dee my sister at heart, you gave me the opportunity to share my journey with you and became a friend, and blue what can I say you and your son gave me hope when I didn't think there was any left. I know that we measure our joy in moments and this moment with my friends is the greatest moment I have ever experienced. Yes, there is a reason for this all and you are all the reason, my angels, my friends thank you. I love you.

I appreciate everyone in this group as well, sometimes there just really isn't anyone to talk to about what we talk about here, our family gets sick of hearing about it, I don't have many friends who I can talk to about my son, who will truly understand the daily hardships we suffer, it's a relief to vent to others who are going through the same hell, and can help each other stay strong and support one another.I haven't been here long either and DMatt has helped me, as well as others.
