Approaches like these of ten end up making chronic illness patients, including those with allergies, feel like they are being blamed for having an illness.
In my case, there is no trauma associated with my nut allergy. It started up after my pregnancy. Many people gain or lose allergies during pregnancy, when the body is altered in many ways.
Why no a separate column on taking little environmental steps? There we could learn not to use so much plastic. Which would kinda defeat the AstroTurf idea.
Also, someone in the comments is trying to claim that leaving shoes out has *always* been a form of protest. Uhhh, sure. Where is your source, your data, your historical accuracy? Can someone at The Source Weekly offer a source, data, history to counter that claim?
As a professional writer and editor of over 30 years, I appreciate that the writer chose to focus on the art. T-man's comment suggests that perhaps he would prefer a schlocky cancer-pity profile.
Unlike him, I don't find this article "sterile" in the least. Here the writer treated the artist—and what may be her last work—with dignity and respect. When I got to the end, my eyes welled up with tears.
I do not know the artist or the writer, incidentally. I just happened to pick up a print issue of The Source at a cafe.
