“I made some mistakes. If I had a chance to do it over, knowing what I know now, I'd change some of my plans," Nita admitted, the words sticking a little in her throat. "But I don't know that I regret the choices I made. They seemed right at the time, and I learned a lot from them."

NOT a biological deficiency as doctors first thought. But a cultural creation that, if wanted to, we could do something about.”
