On My Way Back
7 years ago
After months of severe illness and struggling with chemotherapy, I'm ecstatic to say that the latest treatment, an immunotherapy, is working well to shrink my cancer growths. It's not a cure, and I'll have to have surgery in a few months to remove my kidney and some cancer in my liver, but right now I'm much improved from my previous state. My nausea is mostly gone, my pain is manageable again, and I'm working to build back atrophied muscles and raise my overall health. Thanks to the cancer, I lost over 80 pounds, and a lot of that was my muscle mass. Yuck!
I've started working again, but it's slow going. I really want to do more art for myself, so I'll be posting more soon!
I want to say thank you to everyone who has supported me the last 8 months, and to the people who continue to do so. I really couldn't have made it through without you all. Thank you.

Was awesome meeting you at FC and was glad to help you on this rough journey, even if just a little bit. Very glad to hear of recovery!
I was so happy to see you at FC, and I hope I'll see you again at many more cons to come!
I was so glad I got to see you again and got to draw stuff for you! I think we all missed you terribly and are glad things are going a lot better.
I felt terrible not noticing your previous journal post for months, so it's a huge relief to hear you're bouncing back!
Yay, I'm glad you are doing better!
