Tired Momma

This is a few hour study of my Wife. Just after the Xmas hoildays she got tired longer and drank a lot of fluids. I thought and so did she, that she was tired from the rush of the season. What did I do? I comforted her. I gave her lots to drink and cans of hot noodles .I made big starchy meals, boy what was I thinking.I thought I was being the caretaker but I was killing her.She got worse and I got her to the Doctor,She has Diabetes ,her numbers posted 830. I could have killed her, but shes still here. We live and learn,not always in the best of ways.The Medicine brought her numbers lower and she's really tired lately but as they get it balanced and with proper diet and life she'll be better in a few months. That still does not mean I dont miss my china doll

Chas, You meant well, you meant love in your actions to feed her. I have seen you and your wife at an occasion. You have the license to draw the mood and in this one the mood is evident--her illness. Just an unbiased comment--your wife is an exotically beautiful lady and I doubt she could ever really look like the painting. Artistic license, no doubt. PS. No mush, no flirting or inappropriate inuendo toward you or her--just an unbiased fact.

Artist Reply: I feel like you have the upper hand, being an anonymous viewer and all. However I take no offence in your opinion, and will most surely pass on your kind words to my China Doll. As you can see this was a time in our lives when both fear and dread was replaced by happiness. She is almost back to her amazing physical self, I -We could not be happier. I invite you to introduce yourself if you happen to see us out (together) in the future. Peace, Charles.
