My heart goes out for the pepin family during your time of sorrow. Your daughter looked like an absolute doll baby. May you find comfort in knowing she has peace and comfort in heaven's arm's.

Your family's story touched my life and the lives of my own children in countless ways. I fell in love with Shi the first time I saw her on television. She was and will continue to be an inspiration to all of us. My deepest condolences.

Shiloh looked like the happiest 10 year old alive, despite what she had to live with. When I saw her on Oprah, my heart went out to the Pepin family. What they did for that girl was so special, and if everyone in the world could be that heartfelt and generous, I honestly believe that it could be a much better world.

Daily Horoscope for December 31

Leo

There's an erratic quality to the day, thanks to the Full Moon in emotional Cancer, combined with a lunar eclipse. Loved ones are likely to behave in ways you hadn't counted on. The only way to cope with this is to be as flexible as possible. Someone might change an arrangement at the eleventh hour so you have to think on your feet, or others may be determined to do their own thing even though it doesn't suit you. Get any arguments out of the way quickly so you can enjoy your New Year's Eve celebrations with a glad heart.
