Ted, one of our Southcare StarsSouthcare's help gives me a level of freedom, which I love as it allows me to continue my creative pursuits like photography and painting, which I enjoy doing from home home studio in Manning. I mainly paint landscapes and portraits and sometimes base them off photos I've taken. It keeps my mind active.
