We have gotten to know Jessica as she has been working seasonally at Center Grove Orchard. A CarePage site, SistersOverPain [http://www.carepages.com/carepages/SistersOverPain], tells the story of their 3 daughters and how they have been living with pain for most of their life. From Juvenile Arthiritis to MCTD and Lupus, Jessica and family have the motto "Everybody has something". Jessica shares with us, "The important thing we want people to understand about all these diseases is that you can't let it stop you from being active and enjoying the life God has given you.... Just because you look at another person and think they have it easier or better than you doesn't make it so. You can't look at our girls and see everything they deal with daily, but that doesn't mean it isn't there."
