I don’t know how we are doing it, but somehow we are all ill holding ourselves together. I think it’s because we know if we break down now, we will never find Harper. If we have any chance of bringing her home, we need to be fully functioning and focused. We have already proven we can work well under pressure, but the pressure feels like it has been turned up to the max this!
