I'm happy to say that slowly the effects of the chemo therapy are wearing off. It's great to take part in life again, to move around, to see my hair growing again, to know the ordeal is over. During the treatment, my emotions were on a roller-coaster trip. I just clung to God, hanging on for dear life.
I painted these tulips yesterday and made an encouragement card for cancer patients out of it. The verse on the front of the card reflects my hope and feelings during chemo therapy:
"Even if I go through the deepest darkness, I will not be afraid, Lord, for you are with me. Your shepherd's rod and staff protect me" ~ psalm 23:4 ~
my name is barbara, i'm a single mother, an artist, a writer. i love dreaming and having my head up in the sky. this blog is about art and about longings and god and illustrations and mixed media and greeting cards and trying to reach for the stars and landing with a thud on the earth and having heartaches and joy and about travels and dreams and wishes..... and other things that move me.
