Transcript
Like my biggest fear is dying from heart disease and not being able to care for my kids. Like that’s my biggest fear. And everyone’s like, ‘Oh well, you have to say if you’re going to hurt yourself or hurt someone else.’ And I’m like, ‘No, I’m the farthest away from that’. It’s the opposite. Like, I’m just so fearful of it happening again.
