I couldn’t respect an individual whom I have never met more than I respect you.

I too am facing loosing my livelihood, as I choose bodily autonomy over compliance. The system I (like many others) have poured my heart and soul into as a Palliative Care practitioner demands more…my fucking well-being. It’s almost too much to bare. 🖤

I’m sitting here in an empty room, reading your words aloud so that I don’t skim over anything. I’m sure your book may have gone on the back burner for the moment, but I hope it will still happen someday. I would buy a copy for myself and one to give each of my children in a few years, because this world they’re growing up in wants to rip out everything of meaning and value and fill in the cavity left behind with fear and dependency. We’re fighting it for all we’re worth. Your words help.
