    Great interview. Never heard of those protein bars that Maria was showing. It’s always nice when a person with a recent diagnoses will talk about it and let people follow their journey and how it is affecting them. My DW never really wanted to talk about it or answer my questions early on with how she was feeling.

    I just looked up those protein bars on Amazon. 6 bars for $27.00 🙄! Too expensive for my pocketbook! I wish she could be an advocate without selling something.
