Following the period of chemotherapy treatments I approached a drawing to summarize my feelings about the experience into a single piece. The face represents how I felt and thought I looked like. Originally the tongue was hanging out in illness but I changed it to not look so horrid. The trees represent the 45 minutes spent walking briskly in the woods and sand dunes with my three dogs. I went nearly everyday I could manage. It was the most helpful and healing aspect of the 4 months. The window or picture frame hovering in the tree represents future mystery and possibilities obscured from direct view.
