I appreciate your follow-up! It adds to this story and makes you justice. I was thinking when I responded to a larger context and this situation is relatable to a lot of people these days who, unfortunately, are in real danger of overlooking their health by using the excuse of “extraordinary times”.

Would you mind if I’d use several quotes from your story to present my view on this topic?

If you are not comfortable, I’ll refrain. If you’re OK then I’ll make sure to add the extra level of detail you just provided, which, believe me, makes a lot of difference.

Thanks for taking the time and for sharing this vulnerability, which I don’t take for granted.
