Thank you so much for the link! I was upset that I was going to miss it in real time. I had hoped that perhaps, I would be able to hunt it up somewhere on the net, to view.
How great to see you, and what a beautiful family you have been blessed with. How wonderful that you work with children, and you use your skills, compassion and knowledge to treat them.
You are an incredible model of strength, courage and the ability of the human spirit to forge on through adversity. You may speak in a whisper, but your words are heard around the world. Thank you again for providing the link.
