Hearts

In matters of the heart, nothing is true except the improbable.
~Madame De Stael


It's Dysautonomia Awareness Month, so I'm celebrating with hearts for Art Thursday. My daughter Ariana was diagnosed with POTS in 2017. A medicine that slows down her heart has been a huge help, in addition to the five liters of electrolytes she drinks daily and compression socks she wears, but she still can't walk long distances and being in the heat is a big no-no. Looking forward to autumn weather when it finally comes!

What a wonderful variety of hearts today! Can't pick a favorite, though the weight of the heart was very cool.

And here's to Ariana...my heart goes out to her.
