I'm your sister Helen's friend in Sri Lanka. I've been reading up on your journey and you're such a star. Lots of good vibes and blessings all the way to you leading up to the surgery. June borns are emotional but strong people. You got this Sarah.

Oh Sarah, I've just read your last two posts. So deep in, so living this. June 17th - I will be holding you and celebrating the beauty of your 40 years - all the love and joy and this pain. And I'll be sending you birthday wishes for this turning point birthday, and wishes for rapid healing. You will be in remarkable shape going in! Love and care, Louise

Happy 40th Birthday Sarah!!!! You have worked harder to get to this day than most of us! However, 40 is the perfect age as your old enough to recognize your mistakes but young enough to make more mistakes and don’t forget Forty’s not that old … if your a tree! 🥳🤪🥰

I’ve been meaning to comment for days but I just don’t know what to say. Your strength is incredibly inspiring and I can’t wait to read a book from you about this someday ♥️ I can’t believe this surgery has to happen on your birthday but I hope it truly feels like a gift, and that your family and other loved ones come around you to make it a special day.

It’s in my calendar and I’m counting down the days with you. Praying for you, Sarah!
