My medical problems and their investigation and treatment
This is a special card I have made for my surgeon, who recently performed my breast cancer operation, to express my gratitude for his skill and kindness, and for dealing with it so promptly. Initially I made a sketch with coloured pencils to use as a guide. How I made the card I…
