Amazing interview!! Sabina seems like such a sweet soul. A lot of her advice reminds me of my experiences having a pain syndrome when I was her age. I love how she gave glory to God. Aimee I love the paper plates idea, for when you can’t cook an actual meal for someone. Will definitely keep that in mind.

Can’t stand that your in so much pain.
Sending up prayers to God for both of you.
