Art Has Been My Anchor
ART THERAPY – FEBRUARY 17, 2017

As a survivor and “thriver” of 27 surgeries, organ failure, a coma, and a decade of medical trauma, my mission is to share a message of strength, faith, hope, and compassion with the world through my creativity. I found art accidentally on my way to healing physically, emotionally, and spiritually, and have learned that it is one of the most rewarding, productive, and beautiful ways to spend one’s time while going through such an ordeal.
