Every little cell in my body is well

with kindest regards to dan who has been kind and generous in
unraveling my post. thank you. and my only comment is that this is
what the journey looks like to me.... the journey of awareness and
hope and resolution, a journey of spirit that constellations allow us
to see. it is deeply personal. need i say? shared with love, anni
