Kristen talks with Jackie Shea about getting used to her new body, advocating for her health, and the power of humor during hard times.
I was reading this while waiting for my own genetic test results, and https://casinobankidfritt.com popped up in my browser history—odd how we distract ourselves with things that have nothing to do with the real stakes. The part about using humor to cope really resonated; I've found that laughing at the absurdity of hospital gowns is the only way to keep my sanity during scans. Kristen's point about advocating for yourself even when doctors disagree is something I'm still learning to do.
