Anna Sale

Well, I definitely think.

The positives of those hard conversations is that we can skip to that part.

For me, I was so far gone when I was deciding about the surgeries.

Nobody could have said to me, this isn't a problem, and this isn't the way to fix it.

But they could now.

I think they could now.

And I would listen.

I live on a street where it's kind of common to see the same people.

I've lived here 14 years.

And this lady that lives two floors above me, she saw me.

I usually open the door for her because she's older and she carries, she walks with a grandma cart.

And she told me that during her recent Domino's game, because they, you know, Dominicans love to play Domino's on the street.

She's like, everybody was talking about your butt looks so good.

I could, I was so...

I cannot believe it.
