I was so so sick but somehow I made it. Like my mom always says.. "If there is a will. There is a way" (and I didn't have anywhere else to turn but inward & take this as a sign & take the job. I needed the money for surgery so I didn't speak to anyone on set of my condition). I had CSO, lupus, endometriosis, and hypothyroidism. I had no idea about the lupus & hypothyroidism.I have to thank my husband for taking to all the locations, and the crazy call times like 5 AM in places like Hutto and getting me the next morning at like 2 AM---Plus the overtime he had to waited on me. I was shaking by the end each day but I knew the film was worth making, that it was bigger than just me, & in fact I knew that my inner warrior was being called out to play. I have to say that God's turning my life around. I get to be on a fun road trip with my family currently, I just found out about the movie, & c+i by Rachelle Briton is coming out with a MENS LINE (HISTORY) https://www.chloeandisabel.com/boutique/chelle OMG & must check out the new summer collection I'm going crazy over what to buy for you all to see, & MD Anderson is going to do surgery in August which settles my mind for time and a date (gives me time to get healthy) & I changed meds and I really feel so much better. Thank you!!

If you want to keep reading here are some fun on set thoughts-

| Ray Wise Dressed in Character |
frown emoticon
We thought it was cursed b/c someone almost said the Scottish play that you aren't supposed to say b/c it means your film is doomed.
Ray Wise said I was his favorite dresser & told me tips on acting and I always brought him his favorite candy smile emoticon We even talked about "How I Met Your Mother" and his part as Robin's father on the show.
He told me how much of a stand up guy Neil Patrick Harris is (which I was thrilled about b/c I've had a crush on him forever even though we go for the other team lol)
The crew was great! They let family on set, and we always making sure we were feed and had rides. Everyone came together and was super nice, which is the best. Usually lots of drama but not behind the scenes on this one!
Honestly, this film is so special to me b/c I didn't think I had that touch anymore, & I didn't think my body could take it.
Most nights or early mornings I came home shaking but my hubby looked me in the eyes every time, sometimes holding me up, and told me "You can do this, trust me you will always remember this, and it will be great."
Even thought I've worked on camera before it's always been for TV much different than for a film on location.
Erin Citti the head costume designer said I was a natural, and she said she didn't know what she would do without me. She made me feel comfortable, with all the people on set. She's amazing
The Manager Jerri Moore was amazing ands she's also a fantastic fashion designer in Houston. She was so humble & truly one of the nicest designers I've ever met. She was our on set mom.
I don't know how I made it through 20 hour work days (not sure the exact hours), but God watching over me, & with the love of the cast, crew, my husband, & family I did it.
An opportunity of a life time? Yes. I'm glad I took the risk... What did I have to lose my clothing line is on hold until I'm cured (looks like it will be this year).
I hope you enjoy!!
