Ms Walling...thank you so much for your kind words and praise. I'm glad my photography has touched you. I love taking photos, and I was very fortunate to have been able to return to Cuba. Both my parents are now deceased, but we are so grateful they both left Cuba, and took a chance with 2 baby girls (my sister and I) to come to the USA when it wasn't easy. We always had a roof over our heads, food and clothes. We were fortunate to live in good neighborhoods. And now, my parents' 4 children are grown adults who have continued their legacy of helping others as much as possible. Thank you again, and may you continue to enjoy your life despite your disabilities. I too have arthritis in my hands...so I can understand. Merry Christmas!
