Super inspirational Violet..! You are beautiful on the inside and outside. Your style is impeccable. This I know after knowing you for a few weeks... :ppp. :)))... You really are super cool and if the law of attraction is true, which I believe it is. I am grateful that our paths were drawn together in the magnetism of the cosmos.
What an interesting life! My family is familiar with Marfans because three of my kids have loose connective tissue and hypermobility issues- and a family history of related heart issues. One reached 6' 5," and another is almost there as a teen. Etc. You get it. I only tell you this because I spent nearly 30 parenting years watching for this, until very recently. Must just be what the called Marfanesque. Also, so strange...I have lupus. I'm not 60, but 50 this year. We are also a musical family. My kids are all extremely talented musicians and creative. So, I don't know how we even ended up on each other's path here, but it sure is interesting!
I am very glad to meet you! It is so rare to speak with anyone who knows a thing about Marfan Syndrome, and I can see where you, as a parent, would have grave concerns. I chose not to have kids because I did not want to risk passing it on. So I applaud you for your vigilance, and I am glad to make your acquaintance!
Thank you so much! It's only been amazing really because no one ever thought I could do it. But it is lovely to feel that I have an amazing spirit! I've read some of your posts - lovely!
I think there’s something uniquely powerful about those who kept going — not because they were believed in, but because something deeper whispered: you’re meant to.
Your light carries that kind of grit.
Grateful to be walking in the same field with you.
Thank you, m'Lord! You don't look 61 in your photographs. I am so glad I've written things that you find enjoyable. Looking forward to hearing more about your research.
Well, her is a link to my blog, which I post very sporadically on, but I have started my reasoning which I build my research on. Note when you get there that the earlier posts which you should start with are down the page and the most recent up at top. It’s one and a half year since I posted there but it gives a good overview of the project. It’s a theory which has been discussed since I were quite young, I remember the discussions among senior researchers at uni back in the eighties. Three professors did the research, and then there was a Novel and a law suite. It’s intriguing, and I for one trust the research and want to develop my own stance on it. Well, enough about that. Do read and enjoy.
Awesome. That word gets used, and abused and over used....but not by me. That was a truly awesome introduction, so well written...such a rich story. Not overdone. And to top it off I go to click in and write my appreciation and I am devoured by violet, with electric violet highlights. Classy, worldly, womanly, wise. Thankyou so much for sharing, keep up the good work!

You always seem to know how to make me smile. I am glad to know you, and your work, and hope that our paths continue on the same parallel.
Happy Birthday, Violet! I really enjoyed reading your story.
Many thanks, Joanna! I appreciate it.

You’re amazing!
That is very kind of you to say. My brother often tells me that I'm simply just stubborn, but I like your version much better! Many thanks!
I adore this piece. I have a deep admiration for the life you've lived and the amazing spirit you have. I look forward to reading more.

Truly honored to receive that from you, Violet.

You do me great honor! I am glad to know you.
Good on you. Keep at it. Sixty one here. Two and a half year to retirement. I do enjoy your posts and notes, just so you know.

Thanks 🙏. You have a fine day and weekend too, and enjoy the reading!
