"I am full of love and gratitude for this second chance of life. It took me almost actually dying to start living. The obstacles, fears and trials are now my victories. I've learned and found many blessings in what I thought was a curse. Though my body has a mind of its own, I have adjusted its needs, My scars are symbols of the battlefield and are a constant reminder of my victory. One of the things I have a passion for is ART. I am self-taught and find joy in creating whatever it may be. It is a great a fun way to relax. There are so many inexpensive ways to create. I promise you will have fun and laugh a lot. After all, laughter is great medicine. It's good for your heart and soul. LET'S CREATE!" ~Diane
