A little update from me: After what has felt like light-years of delays, setbacks, detours, and an almost unbelievable domino effect between what has been happening with my mouth and oral health and the way it has intersected with so many other aspects of my health, my ability to work, and inevitably my financial life, I may finally be approaching a real turning point. It has been such an extraordinarily long road, and there have been so many moments when one problem seemed to trigger another, which triggered another, which triggered another. Trying to move through all of it while keeping everything else in my life afloat has been exhausting in ways that are difficult to put into words. Truly madly deeply.. But, if all the stars align, I am hoping that one week from now I will finally have some genuinely fantastic news to share. I don’t want to jinx anything just yet, so I’m going to leave it there for now. But for the first time in a very long time, I feel like I may actually be able to see a little light at the end of this incredibly long tunnel. And rest assured, once I get my bearings and enough of this is finally behind me, there is a much larger story to tell. Let’s just say there is enough material here ( ha) for, at the very least, a book. Frankly, I’m not sure anything outside the breadth and intimacy of a book could possibly do justice to explaining what the totality of this experience has actually been, how many seemingly unrelated things became interconnected, or the sheer breadth of what it has done to my life. And I’m afraid there are aspects of it that will continue for a little while longer. Someday, though, I intend to tell that story properly. There is far more to it than I have ever publicly explained. To everyone who has helped me, donated, shared this, checked on me, encouraged me, or simply kept me in your thoughts through all of this, thank you from the absolute bottom of my heart. I cannot at all adequately tell you how much it has meant to me. Fingers, toes, and absolutely everything else crossed. ❤️
