Minnea, thank you for sharing this with us. While a sad story, it shows the indominable spirit of humankind if we look at the silver lining of the cloud. My prayers go out to the Carlson family. I am sure the children are as proud of their mother as she is of them. The Lord gives us only that which we can handle.

Congratulations on the honors your daughter earned. Another example of the rewards for fighting this disease as long as we can or need to. God bless.
