Jazzy's mum ...DONNA
Mum (Donna) has created thousands of hand made ceramic hearts they take hours to make. But mum had the personal satisfaction of seeing Jazzy hand them out. Sometimes Jazzy would sell some for pocket money, but other times she enjoyed the significance of giving them out.
But for Donna, life has been tough, she has suffered a number of life long chronic illnesses, Diabetes1, a permanent deafness disability. But Now Donna is virtually blind and had to stop making the hearts. She can hardly see our faces, and her hearts are beyond her vision capability.
Donnas goal is to encourage Jazzy to create her own hearts, or maybe through her animation skills jazzy may create her own Digital hearts in the future. Donna did her best despite her disabilities, she home schooled jazzy who is joyful and lot's of fun, but sometimes Jazzy can be quite challenging, you really have to be prepared to expect the unexpected with Jazzy. Coping with high functioning autism is not easy for Jazzy.
Jazzy has built her self confidence and social skills by selling and giving out her mums hearts and is now well known as the "HEART GIRL" by local businesses all around the city of Melbourne.
Mums handmade ceramic heart gifts, also had special inspirational messages. Not only was Jazzy handing out the gift hearts but she also continues to share the message her Mum gave her, from the age of 4.
"Donna" began making ceramic hearts in 2014. She wanted Jazzy to have her own unique gift hearts to give away to local community. Jazzy at the age of 4 was first motivated to give her own colourful cut out hearts, when she heard her mum's message.
OUR WORLD NEEDS MORE HEART
Here is a beautiful video of Donna making her handmade ceramic hearts, when she still had her eye sight, so many years ago.
