General Update!
3 years ago
Second year of university went well! I haven't got all my results back, but I'm pretty sure I will have handily passed all my papers (including the 3rd year papers). Just two more years of undergrad to go! I'm feeling a little more confident about actually pursuing clinical psychology, rather than only doing a counselling masters, so I'll see how it goes!
Update on the Crohn's situation: I did eventually get moved to an orally taken immune suppressing drug (imuran). On the plus side it seems to be working really well and I've had minimal side effects. I already have more energy again finally, so I've been going on walks again. My diet is currently still a bit restricted (I tried to add some vegetables back in, it didn't work) so I'll just need to let everything heal a bit more. I do have a review in the new year with my Gastrointestinal doctor, so I assume they'll change the dose and take me off the anti-inflammatories that were not working. I'm still masking and doing all of that, and so far have still managed to avoid any covid.
I'm still working on finishing up the last of the commissions, they're big ones but hopefully in a few weeks I'll at least have *something* to update with. I've been doing other small things that I'll attempt to get up over on
ocelot as I get around to it!

good update. still wondering when those Nose Lick Icons will open again just like the one you did for my old OC King Kangaroo. hoping i'll get one for my current OC Sunset Wolf.

Probably never because adobe eff'd flash. I'll be attempting to release some of my old icon templates as free frame by frame and people can mod them how they want, but I'm just not sure when I can get around to that.

I'm really sorry to hear what you're going through. You were one of the first artists I ever saw any furry art from and I've always loved your work. And as someone who just last year got diagnosed with ulcerative colitis after multiple trips to the emergency room I know how those intestinal disorders can not only make you feel horrible, but just sap all the energy from your body. It took a long time for me to get off of just liquids and back to solid food and walking up stairs or running across a crosswalk made me dizzy and almost fall over. I know it's really rough but hang in there. I was convinced no medicine would ever make me feel normal again after at least 3 failed, but just stay strong <3

Eugh that's rough. I'm "lucky" in that my crohn's is considered pretty mild, I just have really high food sensitivity (apparently it's pretty common with the terminal illieal Crohn's). I glad you've found something that works! I would not wish this on my worst enemy :'D

Glad that you're making progress with all of that. I'm still around in one way or another.
