Merry Christmas to all on here. This was a gift from my wife. She had an incredibly talented artist paint it as a Phoenix. She said the quote, "In order to rise from it's own ashes, a Phoenix first must burn" really spoke to her in relation to my experience. I hope each of you have found some peace and rest during the holiday.

    Thank you very much and a Merry Christmas to you also. I am glad you have made something positive out of the mask to inspire you. I too had some thoughts of doing something with my mask as I have seen several that were turned into artwork, etc. I brought it home but as I continued to look at it the reminder of the brutal treatment and recovery was too harsh a reminder for me and it ended up being disposed of. I hope you are recovering well and having clear scans now and in the future and continue to remain NED.

    Wishing You the Best

    Take Care God Bless-Russ
