I had a long conversation with Steve Lobel yesterday. We talked about how his project "Recognition Beyond Burned" came to be and how it has now become a passion for him. I completely understand how he feels. I just started my project and already it has become a huge part of my life. I want so badly to do justice to all of the survivors that become a part of this. Speaking with Steve definately made me feel hopeful where that is concerned. He said that he is still in contact with many of the survivors he met and photographed. That, to me, is icing on the cake. To be able to meet all of the wonderful people and tell their stories for them, and also make lifelong friends out of it. That would be a blessing! My next goal is to contact some more of the foundations that service burn survivors and find out if I can possibly send them some literature regarding the "Enduring The Burn" project. It is my hope that I will start seeing some interest from survivors who wish to be a part of this. Thanks, again, Steve for your time on the phone yesterday and your generous offer to collaborate on my project with me!
