I'm not sure I followed the directions, but this is what came out of Focus for week three. I decided to continue my health aspects and I decided to keep it to the kit Believe in Miracles and Nocturnal Creatures Alpha. Contemplating using the 4 square form to put them all together. Focus was a great word for this month. Despite not knowing what I wanted to scrap at first, this month (and more to come) is all about my health and getting surgeries in the near future. So it seemed fitting to add my third "fun" disease.
Tracy, do you have this? I had to look it up. It sounds very frustrating. You certainly scrapped this perfectly. The Scrap Police is not going to come after you - if they do, they'll haul me in with you. I often don't "follow the rules".
I love how you connected this weeks and last weeks with the same heading, and spear-heading education on another health challenge! #advocacygoals!!! I really like how you put the disease name within/over the word focus - allowing the viewer to really hone in on the disease. The gradient lends to focusing on the topic as well. Another winner!!

Yep. If you looked at it all together (next week ) you would think I lost the genetic lottery. But the Lipedema and EDS are connected and most have both. I just got lucky and also got the CMT. I know if feels like a lot when you first hear it all, but my life is good and God blessed me so I can help educate others and understand others how have different invisible diseases. Thanks to google I at least know why my joints hyper flex and why I lock my knees when I stand and dont pass out.
And yes, the scrap police won't catch me on this one! I will hyper-extend my way out of cuffs every time!

Thank you Amy. This one was a bit harder as its my lesser disease and I wasn't sure how to make it informative and yet pretty. But it turned out better than expected. I have started next weeks, and put all three on the layout so far and its funny cause I found I didn't get them all aligned as good as I thought I had But we shall see what happens in the end. Might just switch it up and do it totally different.
I've saved this in a Safari tab for the last few days until I had time to comment because I didn't want to forget. It's an amazing page Tracy and so are you. You are an awesome advocate and educator, thanks for that. I know you talked about the different diseases on SG, but this really explains it all in more detail. I'm so sorry you have to deal with all this but thank you for creating this beautiful page, it's lovely as well as informative. I like how you used the same time of color and the soft colors you used. The strings reminded me of connective tissues and the flower of hope. Beautiful, Tracy.

Thank you Marilyn. At SG I was just dipping my toe into explaining a few things but here I dove into the deep end. I love that you got the strings in this layout. I was thinking they bent and wobbled like my body, bending ways they weren't suppose to go yet just flowing along like no big deal. I always thought everyone bent like I did and had no idea it wasn't normal. Who knew that not everyone can scratch their whole back? I was amazed when hubs always was asking for a back scratch cause he couldn't reach the itch. Totally weird to me cause I can touch every square inch of my back.

It IS amazing how we really only know our own reality, until we "learn" differently. And, sadly then often learn to think of that as "not normal"... Which really doesn't even exist...
You are amazing, Tracy! You have managed to deal with many difficulties yet remain sane and positive. (Yes, sane. ). I just saw this AJ and will have to look for the last one, but, meanwhile, I love the pastel colors and how the strings wind their way through the list of symptoms. That flower is a beautiful touch! I agree with Belle, above: you rock!
