It sounds very frustrating on a soul level, and I hope someday you find some relief beyond your art(although it is very neat that art is your therapy!).

This post is wonderfully written and helps me understand your situation. Knowing what I do now of the kind of pain that haunts you, I GREATLY appreciate your ability to create such wonderful Art and maintain your sense of humor. I always love the words you choose for your ATC's. I can relate all too well many times why you choose the words you do. I missed you and your Art while you were quiet and I'm so glad you are back!!!

I have several minor problems but cannot imagine what it must be like to suffer constantly from so many problems that can effect you in such random ways. I am sure I would not have your fortitude. Sending you a healing hug, and hope you continue to draw comfort and distraction from your artwork, which is great.

We know not why we are the ones to suffer and it seems so hard to do what it is required of each and every day what should minimise our suffering. The rules are so harsh and impossable as our bad days. Thank God however for our creative outlets and our loved ones who so dearly seem to understand and support us even though they cannot begin to imagne the true depths of our despair but never the less they make life so much more bearable. Keep positive is all I can say and pray for some miracle cures sometime soon.
