We posted this on one of our facebook pages and got more than 55,000 comments in less than a week.  WOW!!   We would love to hear from you, too. 

We know you all have gone through so much...more than anyone can even imagine unless you are there.  There are stories shared all over the internet... Looking back at the past several months, I'm sure it is hard for you to believe you made it this far.  And then to think... How much longer???????  Thank you for all you do!
