Freedom!



This little girl has finally arrived! In previous posts on this blog, we discovered her name and a sense of her journey. We determined, you and I, that she would remain bald and express just a wondrous freedom from her pain. My very own little cancer survivor said this upon viewing the painting, "She looks happy because no more chemo!"
I hope to get in contact with a Childhood Cancer Art Show somewhere, but so far my search has brought few results.
If you would like to help discover an appropriate Art Show, by all means, do so!

Thank you friends and family for helping me to put into a tangible expression that which is often hard to describe.

SHE HAS A NAME AND A STORY!

I spoke with lots of folks about this, apparently, little girl. She has brought out emotions of all ranges of the spectrum. I like this comment the most:
"I think her name is Freedom and she doesn't need hair. Her body is moving free and she has escaped all that has held her down. The joy on her face says it all, I see no fear, pain or hurt. Just the joy of freedom."
I won't say whose comment this was but I will tell you that we have dealt personally with Childhood Cancer in our own very close family. Our little one fought hard for two and a half years with leukemia and WON.
So, Freedom is her name, she is a little girl, and she will stay bald.
Yea!
Happy Fourth of July!
