But Did You Die?

At 42, unmarried, single, and no man in sight, she made a decision that nearly killed her.But did she die? No. And she has the stories to prove it.Michelle Carter went to the fertility clinic to find a baby and came out of a four day hospital stay with a blood transfusion, emergency surgery, and one very loud question ringing in her ears: Was this worth it?The answer changed everything.But Did You Die? is the laugh out loud, painfully honest account of one woman's life over 40 - navigating men who give one letter as a name, roommates who turn out to be wives, eighteen women on a BlackPeopleMeet profile, and a man who showed up with all the confidence and none of the goods.This is not a sad story about being single.This is a celebration of the woman who survived the foolishness and rose with her peace, her standards, and her sense of humor fully intact.If you have ever given a man a chance he did not deserve or cleaned a man's bathroom just to be done wrong anyway - this story is for you.She did not die. She just finally started living.
