Some mother’s had a difficult time keeping the bandages on or tightening them enough and the child’s feet did not get bound correctly and they were basically left crippled by the ordeal. Apparently even when done correctly the person cannot walk long distances without discomfort. This practice was outlawed by the government in 1958 but apparently in some rural areas it was not reported.” (http://shantimarie.wordpress.com/2009/08/17/chinese-foot-binding/) [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I can definitely empathize. I had to put my trusted friend Lucky down a couple of years ago. She made to 13. Was the hardest thing I had ever had to do. I’m not embarrassed to say I cried like a 58 yr old baby! Now her old buddy George is about to have to go the same way. We are hoping, but realize he is 14 years old and he can hardly walk. I brought him a buddy home hoping Harman would help prolong George’s years. Don’t think it’s gonna happen.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Wow - what a treat for the eye Shanti Marie! This painting  is a knock out and  in every way. Your colors, composition and movement are magic. 
I&#039;d love to have the option of buying a print or card - not because I wouldn&#039;t adore having the original, but because I&#039;ve spent my money on paints - in hopes of capturing a bit of &#039;magic&#039; myself. ; )
Wishing you the very best.]]></description>
