Hi Kerri! Thank you so much for stopping by my blog. I hope you will become a follower and will check back soon. I see that you are battling MG and I wanted to tell you that my Great Grandmother (76 years old) has battled MG for a very long time and had a partial mastectomy due to Breast Cancer. She is a fighter, much like you! Best of luck to you and Blessings :)
Very good!
Love you!

Wow, that was wonderful! That actually brought a tear to my eye, and...I never cry. Ever. God bless you.
