On August 9, Selma shared another candid photo of herself looking seemingly healthy less than two years prior. “This recovery is not linear. This may be the hardest part,” she admitted. “Because I have expectations. I get impatient. I doubt. But, our thoughts are powerful. I promised myself I wouldn’t judge this process.
