Yes, I have been long absent from my blog. The winter has been long and hard. In January I was diagnosed with Hoshimoto’s Thyroiditis, an autoimmune disorder in which the immune system attacks the thyroid gland. It has been difficult keeping up with everything — my family, friends, animals, art… It is amazing how a small gland can control your life, ruin your health and destroy your ambitions.
As I now search for the words (now locked somewhere in my thyroxine starved brain) to explain my experiences for the past months and find my missing time, I start my slow journey of recovery. During the first months of spring, I start all over again.
