Hi, Sweet Parents, A dear friend sent me this video. I have to tell you that it is not easy to watch because we’ve been there. We’ve been where these parents have been, maybe in different ways. Videos like these are hard for us because not only does the story grip your heart but it [...]

Hi, everyone! Can you feel the romance in the air? Or are you feeling more like strangling your beloved? When you have a child with serious illness, you may feel like you don’t have the time from romance, but, dear one, this is the time when you need it most. Pulling away with your husband [...]
