I had the huge privilege of reading this essay before it was out and it's one of those essays that will stay with me forever. Thank you for your story and your courage...so so so much more than worth it. https://twitter.com/TaylorByas3/status/1266265871816650752

This passage where she talks about her life's near misses, a hint of the almost:

"If death was a raffle drawing, my father’s name was pulled out of the hat, only to be thrown back in to be picked at a later date."

I think about this part all the time.

Celebrating this essay, and @TaylorByas3 today! Thank you for the heart you put into everything you do- the world is so much better for it.
