Hi ,This last two weeks have been an emotional roller coaster. Figuring out what of our long-term plans have changed, and which have not... making new plans for the future.. and still dealing with the mundane details of daily life just drain me. Ther...

Hi ,It's funny how life changes so quickly. Earlier last week, I got a text message that is literally life-changing. It changes all my plans for the rest of this year, and brings more than a little uncertainty to my life. I admit to throwing up after...
