MILESTONES SERIES
12 x 36" mixed media mosaic, "Milestones," donated to support the Johns Hopkins Kelly Gynecologic Oncology Service through their 2019 survivorship conference.
The concept of milestones took on new meaning for me during treatment for ovarian cancer in 2018. I took time to note and celebrate points of progress of all kinds—medically, physically, spiritually, emotionally, relationally. There were mega-milestones like hitting the halfway point in chemo and tiny ones like simply reaching the end of a bag of whatever-platin during an infusion. Celebrating kept me present to the moment and boosted momentum to keep moving forward. I hope everyone who views it is reminded to see progress and moments worth celebrating all around. It now hangs in my gyn onc's office, the incredible Dr. Rebecca Stone who understands these milestones like no one else.
Two years and several formats later, Milestones is a proper series.
