About Your Care Team
From the first day, Shepherd was there to support me. Everybody was realistic. They allowed me to be angry, to be sad, to be whatever I wanted to be. I thought my life was going to be over, but I have lived more now than I did before. The things that I thought were going to be impossible, I’m doing them.
