Stripped. Ripped. Most if not all you’ve described . I was and didn’t get hit by a truck . A huge vehicle known as panic disorder , depression mixed with a grain of bi polar. Years of therapy. Tough women. They didn’t have pretend bangs or tapping pencils 😂.

I agree that this is such a graphic piece. I really would like to purchase one of your birds or birdhouse. Are the avaliable? They are so meaningful in their being so real and organic....

Thank you. That really means a lot to me.

They have been sold in galleries but I haven't been selling them over the internet. It is possible that I could arrange something for a collage, but it would be pricey because I don't do this as an industrial thing but literally only one of each.

And then I'd have to add shipping and somebody else would have to do that for me. So that's the cost that would be involved.

I wouldn't do the homes for birds as they're too heavy to ship in any kind of economical way. I'm so glad you like the work.

Thank you for your reply. I would so appreciate acquiring a birds house and would willingly pay for the art and the shipping. No hurry, no timeframe...but if it is possible I would like to pursue.

God, I hope you are writing a book. In whatever (invented) form works for you.

Again, I have been writing a book. In fact, more than one book. But I did lose my agents quite a while back. No Agents, no book.

Judith,

Thank you for this poignant yet hopeful prose piece. You express in very concise, clear prose the huge changes in your life caused by a drunk in a truck. Being able to write clearly and well about this shattering event is a great service to humankind. Thanks!!

Judith, I’m am always awed by your gift of seeing and describing so emotionally and poetically. Knowing there was a time when you could almost recite the alphabet makes your gift miraculous. Thank goodness for neuroplasticity and tenacity. I’m so grateful you are here on the planet. Welcome, new arrival.
