Chasing Lightning Bugs Studio Blog

it's been 3 weeks since i last wrote, telling you of my friend susi's new diagnosis with metastatic cancer that her doctor's told her was untreatable.  it was a couple of weeks of feeling desperate and scared.  and trying to keep the fear away so that the energy could be positive and strong.  let me first say what amazing people are here in the little village of blogs we've created.  most of you whom i've never met in person, but i hope to one day.  i felt the kindness of your souls even before this, but with your generous gifts to susi's indiegogo campaign, i quickly became certain of it.  thank you!!!
with your help susi was able to get to germany!!! she has been with her daughter and her grandchildren and is now seeking the help of alternative sources of medical care, which is covered under the german health care system.  although she was dealing with terrible pain, and was worried about the prospect of the long flight, she was  and is full of the most powerful positive belief that she may still be able to fight this.  
and so, she is home, in germany, surrounded with her family's love and prayers and support.  and i wanted to thank you and update you on what you helped make possible.  

 these photos were taken during our last visit.  she had come by the studio a couple days before she left.  her pain had begun to ease and we had a wonderful visit.
