My job is to stay alive until the medicine and research catch up.

I've had to come to grips with a God that fits my own experience, which is, my God could not be offering protection and not have protected my boy.

You have to have enough respect for other human beings to leave their lives alone. If you admire that life, build it for yourself. Don't just try to come in and take somebody else's life.

Everybody makes personal decisions that are right for them and if you're in political life, you're used to having those analyzed.

Part of what I want to do is sort of reclaim my story - it belongs to me and to my children, who have to live with whoever their mother is.

I'm not worried about me or what's going to happen to me.

I'm a recovering lawyer. The practice of law has changed. Every agreement is a fight.
