CarlaLast year I decided to retire early after a poignant observation by a friend: “one damages one’s health to create one’s wealth and then consumes one’s wealth to preserve one’s health”. On retirement I discovered my new found passion for art after never having done some since school. Coincidentally both my parents have cancer and have elected not to have any treatment. I joined this art group recently bringing together my passion for art and for my parents who I am helping to care for in the most difficult circumstances of social distancing. The art group gives me a moment in time to distract me from more difficult thoughts whilst doing something I love.
