You are an inspiration "2019" and perhaps at some point we could email or private message. I admire all who attempt this process and see it through, appointed or not- but I really admire young folks like you who are Undeterred by initial failure. You are remarkable and a teacher to folks of...

I appreciate the responses regarding my DS and approaching this very difficult process again- for a third time. It is not easy to watch or listen to a DS or DD deal with a rejection of such gravity- and find the strength to enter the "fire" again- knowing that it may well happen again for some...
