@Oxonlady I feel the same way.
Yep, agree completely. I'm sorry they've treated you like that.
Feel free to tell us here. There should be an open discussion about this. I hope that you get the treatment you deserve.

Hi Tori_Scope, not really, I'll have just have to keep taking the painkillers and engage in something that gives my brain something positive to think about, which is my Art Project! It has been very therapeutic for me the last four years. Thank you for asking.

Hi Harry01, how are things with you today?
Just to give you an example of how much doctors don't know, even though they think they do and how they simply don't listen to the patient : I went to A&E a couple of weeks ago, feeling very unwell and they did some blood tests. My white cell count was very high, yet they dismissed it, saying it's because I'm on steroids. I kept saying that I must have an infection, as I felt so unwell. Had they given me antibiotics then, I would not have continued to deteriorate to the point where I could barely move.
In any case, I've improved on the antibiotics, though I'm still worn out.
Next time, I won't be inclined to listen to the doctors! -
Ooh, what kind of art do you do @Oxonlady? That's a great way to keep your mind busy.

Hi, Tori-Scope.
I paint my canvasses and then I give them a 3-D effect in a special, unique way that I have invented myself. I have a few more canvasses to complete and then I hope to find a way to exhibit them. As I'm housebound, this might be difficult to arrange but I'm determined to share my artwork with the world once it is completed! -
Very cool @Oxonlady, that sounds great!
I'm sure you'll find a way, especially once more venues start to open. Have you posted pictures of them online before? I'd love to see! -
@Oxonlady your work sounds interesting, maybe somebody could take them to craft fairs or something for you or you could advertise them on a selling site for collection only
-
Hi Janer1967. I will never sell my canvasses! I have a lot of emotional energy invested in them and they are the subject of a book I'm writing!
It would be wonderful to exhibit them so that people can see this unique work which will not be found anywhere else in the world. But I'll never sell them. I need them around me to cheer me up and remind me of my long, arduous journey to get to where I am now! -
Ok sorry got the wrong end of the stick when you said about exhibiting them
-
Hi Tori_Scope, if you Googled my real name you'd probably see some of my canvasses come up... But I'm not sure I want to give my name out on this thread... Though it might be ok, I don't know....
-
That's ok Janer1967, I know you were trying to help.
I know that almost all other artists sell their work so I do understand your suggestion.
I just couldn't bear to be parted with my unique collection! I hope that doesn't sound daft or selfish... -
We don't encourage people to share personal details on here @Oxonlady so I understand, don't worry!
You're always welcome to post whatever you're working on on the community if you fancy it. Lots of people share their arts and crafts on KaleidoScope. -
@Oxonlady Maybe you can find some local art gallaries or exhibitions or even local cafes and places thst weould display your work for a period of time.
I am sure they would be willing to help collect them and display
Some places struggle with being able to afford artwork to display to make the place look better -
