Joyce:
I may be wrong on this, and if anybody knows better, PLEASE set me straight. What you do depends on how much text you need to add.
You can use the text touch-up tool to edit the characters in a single line, but the text surrounding this line won't wrap or adjust itself. Each line acts as a separate entity.
You can use the text touch-up tool to add blank lines, but these aren't inserted into the flow with existing lines. You need to have some existing white space into which you add the new line.
In other words, you can't do extensive editing with the touch-up tool. It's just for touch-ups. (Oh, I get it.)
Your best bet for large additions of text is to rewrite the existing pages or create new pages using the original authoring software. If you're redoing an entire page you can use whatever software you're comfortable with, provided it can create a PDF that looks the way you need it to look.
When you've created the new page, use Acrobat to insert the page into the PDF, replacing the old page if that's desired.
