What better way to beat the winter blues than to win a piece of artwork from the beautiful and talented Robin Maria Pedrero! I discovered Robin’s artwork in 2011 on Twitter. I don’t like to use many cliches but her art back then spoke to me:
This was no news to Robin who said, “I find many people turn to my art to feel uplifted. Several with chronic illnesses have told me the relief and comfort they feel having my art to look at in their space or even in their stream on Facebook.”
The winner will have their choice of anything in Robin’s Etsy shop up to a thirty ($30.00) dollar value. The contest will run until 11:59 p.m. Friday, February 8th, 2013 and there are three ways to win:
1. Leave a comment.
2. Tweet out this contest and let me know you have done so by entering again and saying something like, “I tweeted out this contest”.
3. Put this contest on your Facebook and let me know you have done so by entering again and saying something like, “I put this contest on my Facebook”.
Therefore, if you do all three, you will have three separate entries in my contest!
Good luck!
Contest extended to Monday, February 11th, 11:59 p.m. EST due to technical difficulties
Congratulations to Jaime Haney! Her winning entry, #19, was randomly selected. Thank you to all who entered and thank you to the fabulous Robin Maria Pedrero for being a part of Mama Sick!

About mamasick
Emily Cullen is a pen-name.
My life changes too fast to have a real bio, but here goes: I suffer from chronic illnesses and diseases which have progressed. My diseases include life-threatening conditions such as Lupus With Rheumatoid Arthritis Overlap and Bipolar Disorder. My other diseases include Fibromyalgia, Interstitial Cystitis and Myofascial Pain, and I no longer can remember them all.
My husband, “Grant” is similarly disabled with Crohn’s Disease, Mental Illness and Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease. Our son, “Tyler” was born in September of 2006 and makes our struggle worthwhile. Tyler is a child with special needs and has been diagnosed with Tourette’s Syndrome and Obsessive Compulsive Disorder.
In 2012, due to my initial disability case being denied in 2011, and being unable to work full-time since 2008, we were forced to leave our New Jersey home and become a “transient” sort of family. We lived in Massachusetts for six months with my mother until September, when we moved to Grant’s hometown, a Cleveland suburb, to stay with his parents.
Long term chronic illness can impact families in so many ways, and in my blog I seek to let sick moms know that they are not the only ones going through this, and to educate people about what can happens when one becomes catastrophically ill. I also strive to break down stereotypes of what a “Welfare Mom” is like. Anything that I have gone through due to being sick, such as my continuing struggle to be believed that I am as sick as I claim to be, is written on the pages of Mama Sick.
I won your last giveaway of her art and I LOVE my piece!!! It’s beautiful, and I’d love to have another =D

There are definitely numerous details like that to take into consideration. That’s an excellent point to bring up. I give the thoughts above as general inspiration but clearly one can find questions like the 1 you bring up where essentially the most necessary thing is going to be working in honest excellent faith. I don?t know if best practices have emerged about points like that, but I am positive that your job is clearly identified as a fair game. Both boys and girls feel the impact of just a moment’s pleasure, for the rest of their lives.
