“My reaction was that (1) I am healthy and normal and not on track for any kind of adverse outcome due to my health, (2) we have a good relationship other than this one point: he’s a great and involved dad, we live in a beautiful place in a house we love, and I bring a lot to the table (make as much if not more $ than him, am a great mom, am loving and caring and kind to him),” she added.
