short hiatus

Those of you who've been reading for a while know I spend most of my time dealing with my little one's disabilities and epilepsy. I don't talk about it a ton here because I see my blog as a place to focus on art and escape for a little while. Needless to say, I've been struggling to "do it all", and just can't pull it off right now. We have some important medical decisions to make that I need to focus even more time and energy on. I'm sad because I would much, much rather be painting than reading neurology journals - but, c'est la vie!
I hope to be back in a few weeks. Thanks for the continued support - I hope you'll all bear with me.

  3. You will be in my thoughts and prayers, Jane. As a mom I can imagine how hard this all is for you and how much it hurts to see your little one go through all of this. I am so glad to know that you can escape, at least once in a while, into your work. I will miss you and your paintings.

  16. Thank you all for your kind comments!
    Medical issues with my little one continue to be a daily struggle - I perhaps need to make peace with the fact that it may be a lifelong challenge.
    Meanwhile, I've missed painting (and my blogger friends:)) and will just have to paint as I can, and hope for the best.

  17. I enjoy your paintings very much. I too have epilepsy so I understand what you are going through. It is hard on my family. But I Love them and it has brought me closer to God. I will pray for you and your little one.

  18. Thanks Donna for your kind comment! I'm sorry to hear about anyone suffering w/ epilepsy - it's so bewildering and scary.
    It's nice to "meet" you here. I notice you're originally from Cleveland - I lived there for many years myself!
