I laughed and cried reading your story of beautiful friendship and difference! I think Kelly has captured the essence of your story in her canvas, she connected to the thread heavenly, perfectly. Every inch of her drawing breathes humanity. I love the film strip, I love the sentiment so very much, and find it perfectly appropriated, I love the dramatic black, and how she painted the skin. I am amazed, at both your story and her canvas, and I must say that reading it thismorning, just made my day. Sending love from Montreal. xox.

To know that I have inspired you to share this amazing journey you had while on an earlier path of your own life, makes my heart sing. Thank you also for the beautiful words you wrote about me.<br /><br />I believe that the reason you were hired is in big part to your honesty. You didn't try to build yourself up and snow her with some line, you shared the truth. Another reason would be that you indicated a desire to help, a willingness to learn and most importantly you were willing to treat her the way you'd like to be treated. Being treated with dignity is one of the biggest things that those of us with disbilities can ask for. We don't want to be treated with kid gloves, or at arm's length. We want to be seen for who we are inside and treated with the same respect everyone deserves. If I ever get my attendant, I could only hope that she will be exactly like you. <br /><br />Now to say you had absolutely no part in the creation of such a phenomenal piece of artwork, is not entirely true. It is your concept after all, with Kelly bringing it to incredible life.<br /><br />Thank you so very much for digging deep and sharing this journey with us. I am so happy that I could inspire you to go forth and inspire so many others in turn. May the path to continue to grow!<br /><br />Much love,<br />Lisa Decosse's Dynamite Doodleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12100692025215744977noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-469905169025674017.post-54229326902605806612013-04-19T23:26:13.648-05:002013-04-19T23:26:13.648-05:00Lisa you are one of the most amazing women I'v...Lisa you are one of the most amazing women I've had the pleasure of meeting in my life. You are an artist and now a storyteller - you have a wonderful way with words that just takes us right to that moment in time as if we were there. You should consider submitting for magazines - you have a real gift. I will have to tell you how I tore my earlobe one day - I wound up with 52 stitches - it's back together, but not so pretty! Life is what you take with you right?
