After every holiday Jill feels like she has ridden the Scrambler ride too many times at the fair. She is overcome by sadness and anger as the flurry of happy FACEBOOK friends shares their FUN-FILLED LIVES. Moments that remind Jill that in her life those moments come at a cost.

Today she moved forward with ADRENAL INSUFFICIENCY.
