You were through so much with her in the last few years and I know she was there with you and she was so proud of you. What an amazing inspiration you are to so many people-me included. You have always been a strong woman with a tender heart-I'm glad your putting it out there for the world to see. As for your self-confidence; I have prayed so much for you to find it. I never would have guessed to look at your keyboard!<br /><br />Love ya!
