Theresa Marie Magario {Miville-Deschenes}
Most currently:
- Dealing with the aftermath of cancer(s), a global pandemic, a couple of unusual bacterial infections, and a hysterectomy. (I hate all of this -math. I’m not even good at -math.)
- Might be in recovery. Don’t want to jinx it. Figuring out how and what I still can do with my body after all this dis-ease…
