Didn't I read the brother of the deceased young woman was getting very stressed out about the court proceedings? This family did the right thing for their own sanity imo, this could've dragged on and on. God Bless these poor young women…

Oh, Kim, I am so sorry! I hate the pukes for anyone, but for little ones, it just eats at my soul with sadness. I get so stressed out when my kiddos go through this. I worry about dehydration so much! I really hope your little one is on the mend and…
