Hi Little Sister, we are so happy to hear from you! Thank you so much for expressing your appreciation and conveying to your family how much we all care. Definitely your prayer family is growing "by leaps and bounds!" You are so thoughtful to take the extra time to write a thank you when we all know that you're down in the trenches fighting at this moment. Everyone here cares about each other, you're right, and we are so glad that you've joined us and feel at home! Please say hi to your brother for us. What's one of his favorite activities in life? As I pray, I'd love to envision him enjoying whatever that is, with full gusto!

Please take care of yourself, too. This can be exhausting, so give yourself a little space and time to reaafirm YOUR goals and priorities. You might find--as many of us do--that those things can shift a little through this experience :-)

Good luck!! We look forward to your next update!
