Cristina Powell brings joy, hope, courage and inspiration to patients, and their families who are facing difficult challenges, serious illness and pain. Because Cristina has journeyed through the difficulties of Cerebral Palsy, she is especially able to listen to, and then embrace, those who are suffering - with love, sensitivity and a knowing compassion. Through sharing her story, she helps others to find comfort in sharing their own. In return she lightens their hearts, enriches their lives and gives them strength to meet their own difficulties.

Cristina dedicates her life to helping others who are suffering from chronic pain and illnesses. She lightens their hearts with her warm smile, gives them courage by sharing the story of her own medical challenges, and enriches their lives with her beautiful, colorful and happy art.
