Mum I kind of see where you are coming from with this, when I couldn't draw anymore it was really awful for me and I felt totally useless. I know looking after the house for all of us is just as important to you as drawing is to me. I felt like less of a person when I couldn't do it anymore, like the one thing I was good at and could take pride in had been stolen from me. Even with you and Dad telling me you loved me and I should just rest because I was ill, I still felt useless and it was hard. But I did discover through not drawing that there are other good qualities to me and I don't have to base all of my self worth just on drawing. And I can draw again now, I got through it! You will too.
