Peer JS communication fails when initiator refreshes page

[Kingsley Frank-Demesi]

Hello, 

I am new to Peer JS, and I have been trying to fix a bug for almost a week now. My setup is working fine as expected—data are getting sent. However, when the initiator of the chat refreshes his/her page, the connection gets lost. I just don't know how to persist the connection. I will appreciate if someone can be of assistance.
