May all these comments bouy you up and keep you strong. You are a bright and shiny breath of fresh air. You are an inspiration to more that you know. You bring light and love to your paintings and sewings like no other. I feel for you so strongly and sense the salty wet pooling up in my eyes when I keep reading and saying back in my own head "And I will try my very hardest to love my body through this"; that would be the hardest. You will make it through, you are a survivor. I miss you on the bliggity blog, come back soon and stay when you can.<br />Bear hugs,<br />The FlethchersBisquithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07551728780439180508noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8497487454235407287.post-51848556683416466822010-04-22T17:58:48.402-07:002010-04-22T17:58:48.402-07:00Praying for you

I cannot imagine going through this, let alone doing it while moving. Your strength is palpable though your words. These other commenters are right; it is truly amazing how many people you move through your art. Hopefully this experience will only foster your intense creativity even more.

From her perch she can watch the birds that land next to her on the windowsill, and I think she communicates otherwise unspoken truths with them. She is strong and graceful and I entirely expect her to take flight one day herself, once more.<br /><br />I'm sure I'm not the only one awaiting the reopening of your etsy shop(s) with great anticipation, and I'm so glad for your return to the blogosphere, though I can only imagine the pain you're feeling and intimately communicating here. You are so strong and so lovely, and my thoughts are with you from the southern half of the state.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8497487454235407287.post-14320286516885130522010-04-20T13:27:36.557-07:002010-04-20T13:27:36.557-07:00i love you, bell. and that's just what you are...i love you, bell. and that's just what you are, a clear, high bell ringing across the horizon of my heart. it sounds like the singing of a deeply rooted tree, it sounds like natalie merchant, it sounds like the pull of thread through fabric, it sounds like the almost-inaudible growth of green in the spring. it sounds like hope, and it sounds like life. and it's completely, unmistakably your song, the truest strength of you.<br /><br />with everything,<br />k.joyshehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03686951473565518913noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8497487454235407287.post-47867432451591727962010-04-20T10:52:24.633-07:002010-04-20T10:52:24.633-07:00i just read all these comments and i am teary-eyed...i just read all these comments and i am teary-eyed. you have made such a difference in your lifetime, and you are still so young. i can't imagine the tears of encouragement and fullness we will share in our old age as we sip a little somethin' on your porch.candacemorrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13893739347394561554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8497487454235407287.post-26877744267024299182010-04-20T10:50:14.548-07:002010-04-20T10:50:14.548-07:00Sending you wishes of health...
