Dear Source,
I'd like to wish I'on Smith a total recovery, and may he and his family continue in the strength that God has given them to overcome this disease. It's brave of them to share this with the rest of the world.
I went to high school with Asta Carrington and was so proud to see her and her family. Asta has always been a positive figure. I'on, you already have won half the battle with your mom and family at your side.
