HUGS Day. I miss you. Thank you for taking care of yourself! If you want to talk, my messenger and email are still as always, and I'd send you my phone number if you like. I can relate.

Oh Dayna, I'm so sorry to hear this! You're such a strong woman I know you'll get through this and back full time to your passion one of these days. I'm glad you're taking care of yourself and that you've found a wonderful partner to pass the piggos along to for now. Love from Cedar County!

Thank you Joel! I guess the one silver lining of chronic illness is that it forces you to prioritize balance since the penalties for ignoring it are steep, right? Thanks again for the support!

I just wanted to wish you strength and light and positivity in your healing journey! We got out of pastured heritage pork here in MA b/c we couldn't turn a true profit but it was loads of fun while it lasted, and big pigs will always have a special place in my heart.

Absolutely, I'm with you 100% on that special corner of the heart that will always be for the pigs. I'll miss their schnoots and the zoomies they'd do in a fresh pasture. Sigh. Thank you so much for the support Laurie!
