On a personal note, my sister was diagnosed with brain cancer at the young age of 39. 
She passed away ten years later.  That was 33 years ago. So much research has taken place . . .  
My painting "When love flies home" was painted in 2017 and a favourite of mine.
The words underneath all the layers of paint and ink tell of how our children, no matter their age, are always on our minds. It felt like the right painting to donate and the right time to let it fly into someone else's hands. I hope it brings much joy to the highest bidder!

Have a wonderful day,
