And honestly, on days like today where I will wake up to a house full of Seating Specialists and Physical Therapist followed by a horde of Nurses from different agencies all “Determining” how they are ‘willing’ to let me be cared for without anyone except me being ‘liable.’ It is worth staying up past 1:00 am to get these five post cards done. Because thinking about others, about what some one else might needs IS a break from the banging on the medical doors. So, no, not ten or twenty postcards, but I did write and finish five more postcards. So it seems, I am not doing the project in a big, giant way, but rather in the way that people with chronic disabilities can, from time stolen between medical tests and illnesses; energy used when it is there, and the location prepared for when time and energy come together.
I hope for at least ten tomorrow, but I will do what I can, and that will be that. Day by day, does the project go.

Beth,
Even with the demands of the Doctors, Nurses and all the other bureaucracy you still manage to give of yourself. To touch the lives of others with a postcard is truly a noble cause. Most people would just give up, but not you. You push on. It is a wonderful testament to your enduring spirit. When I receive a postcard it makes the day special indeed. Thank you Beth.
You rock, sweetie!
