From: Waterspider on 23 Jan 2008 00:51 When I was finally diagnosed with hep c, seriously ill, I was given a tentative 3-5 year prognosis before things got "critical." That was five years ago. But, I did treatment, it worked, life is great. Today I got myself a badge of accomplishment, lest I forget. The butterfly is symbolic of rebirth, the stone a symbol of heart and life (but you could say, "it's not the life, it's the liver") and do note that the dragons are controlled and submissive. Most of my friends and none of my acquaintances know how much this means to me. Some of you will... http://www.flickr.com/photos/myrwin/2213058771/

The artist does only very personal, one-of-a-kind pieces, but I'm sure you could find someone to do something similar that's even more appropriate and meaningful to you. I'm glad you like it :-)
From: dBo on 23 Jan 2008 19:46 well I'm not used to these kind of things but I'm going to give it a whirl! Here is My Trophy - it hung in plain sight all thru TX where I would see it the moment I woke up and the last thing before going to sleep, to remind me - It is a "Dragon Slayer". Having reached SVR it hangs in a place of honor in plain sight these days :) Whatever works for ya! http://www.flickr.com/photos/23120185(a)N03/ I hope this works! :)

In case you don't check back to Flickr, I sent you an invite to Dance With the Dragon group there. The invitation is open to any photographer-heppers who are interested.
