This was a project about children suffering from cancer. One of my best friends was one of them, and during her treatment period, I tried to listen to her needs. She was always struggling with explaining how she was feeling, to people who did not know the feeling of having cancer. Especially the long text-messages tired her. By listening to her stories, I created a series of GIF's, so she could easily share the way she felt to all the people surrounding her. Every GIF is connected to a different complaint she was feeling.
