In this session we put the finishing touches to the images we had created to illustrate our journey through illness.
We discussed how we would feel about exhibiting our pictures and agreed that it may be of help to others. We decided to show are pictures at the Lisheens House Centre in Skibbeeren and would create the display next week.
We are also are thinking of making a short film about the process of the art making and support we gave each other in this group
We all reported feeling stronger when talking about our individual journeys and more able to accept what happened to us along the way
