So good to hear that you found someone who has already been through it. Must be wonderful to be able to turn to someone with questions.

As much as I try to get on Survivor (the show), I would much rather you get the thrill of saying it. Although we all know if you look back through all the trials you have been through in your life, you are truly the ultimate SURVIVOR!!
