I took an old image, and toned down the color, and ran it through SPE for this final look.

I have been wondering about our dear friend Marzena (SAM), and tried emailing her, and she did respond. With her permission I'm sharing it with you to explain of her absence.

Boris is quite well and says: "Thanks"! I, on the other hand, am feeling worse than a thing that a cat brought from the backyard, if you know what I mean. The doctors disclosed hyperthyreosis in me and the symptoms are horrible weakness in muscles, sweating and in general feeling weak like hell!!!! Will you believe that I stopped to take pictures on account of camera being too heavy?! ... My energy lasts me for two hours walk [slow - me and fast running for B.] daily and this is all. It all started in the first days of September and I thought this was the effect of overworking. Then I went to my doctor who ordered blood tests which showed this thing with thyroid. My visit to thyroid specialist will be on 6 September,(I think she meant to say Oct. 6th)? then I hope he will prescribe me some drugs which would help! Even typing is tiresome like hell.

This post is dedicated to her, I sure hope she gets better soon!

Thank you for commenting.

Thanks Sandi for your post, providing a to SAM dedicated manip (special and a wonderful one) and the update about her medical situation.

I was really frightened. I've check-out instantly the information about hyperthyreosis. Came somewhat at 'ease' by reading that a good treatment is possible.

I wish SAM from the bottom of my heart all the best, and a soon recovery.

I will send her a PM, just for her to read and not to answer it.
(she can be tired, and her health is priority number one!)
