I feel beautiful after reading this, honestly. You have to be beautiful to really *get* this letter I think. Heather, you always make me think and make me laugh and make me feel seen. That’s beautiful. Thanks for sharing your story with us. I’m glad you’re okay and on the other side of such a big surgery. Also, I would have shit my pants with delight if my mom had ever said anything like what you say to your kids. My mom used to walk into stores and jokingly ask “Do you have any big fat cow sizes?” when she was looking for clothes for herself. I feel beautiful being a part of this community. Sending love to everyone here!
