I Almost Said No to a Treatment That Could Save My Life

I’m going to be really honest here.

There was a moment where I nearly walked away from brachytherapy. Not because my doctors told me not to do it. Not because it wasn’t recommended. But because I was terrified.

Not logical fear. Not evidence...

When a Separation Turns Toxic, You Feel It in Your Bones

There is a very specific kind of exhaustion that comes with a toxic separation.

Not just the heartbreak or the logistics or the legal stuff. It’s the constant tension. The feeling that every move you make is being watched, twisted, or used a...
