EDM Challenge #132: Draw a Chain

It's been a long time since I last posted a sketch for the EDM site.

Life sometimes takes us other places, sometimes places we'd rather not go, but sometimes we get a reprieve and hope for permanence.

My wife is recovering from a second mastectomy (by choice) and full, bilateral, reconstruction surgery. She's proven to be as tough, and strong, through this ordeal, as the link in this drawing!

And that's what I wanted to convey...strength.

    What you and your wife are going through must take more strength than most humans are capable of. I think one never knows how strong or weak one is until tested. Your wife is very fortunate to have you, the love you have for her is obvious! Well done drawing.
