Ms. Abbastanza,
Your story is one of courage, hope, and inspiration. You have endured so much and yet you still give your self worth the importance it deserves. That's wonderful news on your RA regimen!!
Stay strong and keep posting. I want to hear how life blossoms for you going forward.
Every great flower needs a supply of poop to grow tall and beautiful from. Sounds like your soon-to-be ex has provided an abundant pile, now all you need to do is GROW!
