Photo: Latest art work "Mind Clouds"I couldn't leave you with that delightful photo of me so here is my last painting I did on Friday at my art therapy group.
Some sad news, though, Martia the inspiration and love behind the group applied for a grant as money was running out to continue the group. And she found out during the painting session on Friday that we had not been given any money. Not on dollar. None. Nada.
Which basically means that the group is over at the end of this month. Yikes. This is sooooo sad as so many women (and men) have benefited from Martia's art group for over 8 years. I know we are all going to try and scrabble around see how if we can get funding from elsewhere but this foundation she applied to was a last chance kinda thing.
I hope there is some other way that we can work out to not let this incredible gift of a group disappear. It has helped many hearts heal from the painful emotional trauma that cancer can expose one to. I know it has been a very sweet and touching experience for me.
Thank you dear Martia for all that you have done (and will continue to do) - you are a miracle!
