This photo is of a picture/ mosaic, acrylic and eggshell on slate, and is me attempting to regain all I have lost through having B12 deficiency for years. The eggshell mask is me (deficient) and is gradually falling away slowly in fragments, revealing the "old" me. I sent a card, with a copy of this photo, to my local MP, hoping to persuade him to attend Martyn Hooper's talk in the House of Commons today. He didn't reply - let's hope he turned up !

An eggscellent way to depict your situation ! No , joking aside it’s really great and hits the nail on the head .

I don’t know if my MP went to the presentation at the Houses of Parliament . He never responded . B****y Brexit has taken over everything.

Wouldn't be the same without a pun from you ! Sometimes I think that might be my main motivation, clivealive , attempting to elicit a pun from you and a cartoon from Hidden !

What a brilliant image. Here feeling nauseous and tired but hope tomorrow is better. Defiantly 2 sides to b12 deficiency. Take care and thank you for sharing your art.

Well done for persevering both with your art and with your MP. Your work is stunning and I hope B2 Def. Is not knocking you back.

Still accepting blips as part of recovery, still striving for the "old" me (she's in there somewhere) and mostly still trying to work out what I need to do to help myself, noticing long-term changes (good and bad) and expecting everything to take a very long time.

No longer looking for answers, don't think they exist yet for me, but feel like I've lost too many years to this to aim for anything less than full restitution !

Wonderful Cherylclaire! The picture is certainly appropriate as this disease has left all of us scrambled most of the time.
