"I know I am in the right place now because my body feels calm.
I have hair where before I had bald spots.
I was engulfed in flames everyday for months. Now I have smooth skin.
I couldn’t taste before. The stomach acid flowing out like lava out of a fire breathing dragon. Now I can taste my Mother’s seasoning every day when I cook for this home.
The sight of plain water used to make me gag. I can drink water again.
I couldn’t go up a flight of stairs. I was so weak and frail. Now I live on the 5th floor with no elevator. I’ve hauled up chairs, desks, large canvases, heavy groceries, bags of clothes.
I am strong. I am alive.”
