Very cool and thanks for sharing.</p> I think I said this before, but as an art therapist who works at a hospital, I simply LOVE it that you are working through your physical symptoms in an external, crafty, 3-d and plushy way.

If you are looking for a place to show work you might try these two links. The first is for the International Museum of Surgical Science in Chicago, and the second is for a show at the Smithsonian (though entry into that one is limited to people with a disability and I don't know if that applies to you) </p> <p>https://www.imss.org/exhopp.htm</p> <p>http://www.vsarts.org/PreBuilt/showcase/gallery/exhibits/Calls/culture/</p> <p>Best of luck and keep making work!

Do you have osteochondritis dissecans? That's what I've got (and have had for about 15 years). The surgery did no good for me, and they eventually had to go in and remove the cartilage flap as well as a large chunk of bone that had just up and died. So, I have a giant crater in the end of my femur.</p> Hey I had that surgery as well. Do you have osteochondritis dissecans? That’s what I’ve got (and have had for about 15 years).
