Wow, do I ever understand from experience what you're going through right now. I'm sorry that you're going through this and especially sorry that your precious little girl is going through this. You'll find amazing strength through this and I have no doubt that everything will work out just fine.

I am so sorry. I don't know what you are feeling right now but I do know how it feels to hear something devastating about your childs health...(Our son had to have a serious open heart surg last year) and we will be praying for you to have the strength that you need, someone for you to lean on and most importantly your sweet babies.

Amy,
I'm so sorry to hear your news. Give yourself a break and let yourself grieve for the loss of some of your dreams. Get right back up tomorrow and go on! You have beautiful girls and a beautiful family and so much life to look forward to! LIVE IT!

Hoping you'll find out good treatment options and it won't all be so scary.

Jeanne
*sending hugs your way*
