You are truly an inspiration Latonya. A true example of how one can turn a life of tragedy into a life to be admired. Reading your story made me realise how one can never conclude their life as long as they are still alive. Hope, change and a new leaf in life are available to all who need it.
Latonya; You are a brave woman! I have not told anyone but my boyfriend at the time of my diagnosis, and a friend who was diagnosed a few yrs before me. I want to tell my family, but I know they will tell outsiders. And I don't think I can handle being treated different. So kudos to you. And God bless!
