I know someone whom is the victim of BPS. Formerly, this person was, but is no longer, an extended family member by marriage. Still, this person tries so hard to be that. It would be okay, except this person suffers from an illness unlike any I have ever known. To be around the suffering is bizarre, not just for the victim, but I can't handle it at all, so I decided to do a picture to show how I see, this person's illness. The straight lines, represent the illness in its dormancy.

this is very interesting Carliss, I really like every bit of what and all it expresses.

Artist Reply: Chuck, thanks for this comment! I know someone who has this disease, and I thank God I don't have it. For those who do, I hope they take their medication.

Wow Cezanne. And by December, there was not a safe, easy way to approach this person. Is that right? I think I know of what you speak when you say BPS...but I'm not sure.

Artist Reply: Rohdy, I really do feel for this person's feelings, but the victim's suffering won't allow feelings for others. Thanks for commenting on this! I appreciate it.

What a very moving powerful creative way to describe the progression of this illness called BPS!!!I feel sorrow for this persons suffering!!! I'm a Type One diabetic and I have seen the diabeties progress through the years in the decline of my health. My heart goes out to those who suffer daily with illnesses!!!God Bless!!!

Artist Reply: Dee, You know, what makes it worse, is though you feel empathetic, and want to be kind, to that person, in my case, the person seems to find joy in putting others' patience, to the test. Thank you, Dee, and I know about Diabetes. It runs heavy and hard in my family!

Beautiful... you know that sick people need more friendship than average people do... they need it but cannot say it often or the right way... but deep inside they appreciate friends. Being around letting your heart speak and caring is realy great! Bravo!

Artist Reply: Thank you Gerald! It's hard, though!
