GLENDALE - November 10, 2015 - ASU Now - Banner Thunderbird Medical Center - Cancer patient's art covers the walls at Banner Thunderbird Medical Center on Monday evening November 9th, 2015.
This piece by Paula reads:
I am a four time cancer survivor. I have been diagnosed with Multiple Myeloma, Renal Cell Carcinoma, Chronic Myeloid Leukemia and Breast Cancer. The last three cancers were discovered with th first six months of 2009, which was not a fun year for me. Needles to say between doctors, hospitals, and various other tests I have ben quite busy with stuff that I would rather not be doing. At times it is difficult to get motivated or have the energy to do the things that I enjoy. That is why I was so glad to be part of this art program because it is an opporunity to enjoy doing something that I love. For me painting is a way of transforming reality and a way to forget about the cancer, even for a little while.
