The Sun is Still Rising

The sun is still rising,
the wind is still blowing,
and out here in the wild,
you are growing.

It's Been So Long

Spinal surgery is not an easy journey, and for some, like myself, it can be as traumatizing as fighting a war.  This is my story.

An Unusual Need for our Nation

IMG_3570 2

Face masks have become so necessary, that I felt inclined to design my own, inspired by a number of designs I found online and in videos, adding my own techniques to the design to make it comfortable and protective, including adding a filter.  My masks are made and provided to those in need in consideration of a donation as affordable during these difficult times.  I am not looking to profit.  I am looking to produce, and continue to produce these masks until, God willing, there is no longer a need.  We can only hope.  In the meantime, I have had a number of requests for instructions on how to make my mask.  That is what I have posted here, including how to make the filter for the inside of the mask. 

I wish you life.  Stay safe.  Stay well.  Stay strong.  Stay home <3
