Vital Signs - Times of Pain and Loss

Enter health She’s around you Surrounds you Within you Health gives us life But what is life Vitality or mediocrity? Do we seek help only when sick? How sick? What is sick? Does sick hurt?

Choose to be there for your daughter’s first dance? What do you do with a second chance?
