health update journal
11 months ago
General
I was hoping that after chemo the doctor would come in and definitively state 'you're CURED!' but that was another misconception I had about how this whole process works. So I don't get to make an exciting journal saying I'm all cured, but despite being anticlimactic, treatment went as well as it could and all the bad things that should be trending downward are trending downward. I had a really rough time with chemo (and it lasted 4 months!!) so I'm very happy it worked. From here I'm just doing tests every 3 months for the next 3 years apparently, and then I can say I'm cured.
but at the start there, before they knew that it was a very treatable form of cancer, the prognosis was really grim. The doctors weren't shy about telling me how bad it looked too! I had to come to terms with dying, so its been a lot of mental whiplash to go from that to 4 months of chemo torture then to remission. I don't even know if I can say I'm 'happy,' I feel mostly stupefied by the events of the past half year. I'm just focused on being proactive with physical therapy for my back post-surgery (two fusions is no joke!) and getting the commission engine revving up to normal speed now. Thank you everyone for your support. This all feels very dramatic to write as my general approach to my online presence is 'faceless smut machine' but I was genuinely moved by all the nice comments and support I got, so I'm glad I was public about my situation on here. thanks all.

am glad you okay and hope you recovery more!
Keep on fighting, you'll gonna beat this!!!!
I was told by a dentist that this person who had cancer said he had his mercury metals removed from his teeth. The fillings the dentist poison us
by filling mercury in our teeth. Well she said once she removed them the person started to notice the tumors slowly fading away.
Just something to think about. I am in the same boat where i need to remove the mercury from my teeth, and she said if she can remove them, there will be a significant
difference. I havent had the treatment yet due to nasal allergies running down my throat and causing me to gag but once i get me some allergy me medicine that works,
ill be back in it.
The point is that if you still have mercury amalgam or any other kind of mercury fillings in your teeth, that could cause cancer.
So im going to get these metals removed, and see if the bumps go away like she said. Maybe talk to your dentist and ask to check if you have any mercury fillings. If you do,
get them out ASAP but will need insurance since it costs a lot or sometimes they have a loan service that can cover the cost but pay in payments each month.
Think about it, and ill pray for your recovery.
I'm really glad to hear you are doing better man, and wishing you only the best from here on out, until you give us the good news.
Do have one small suggestion though: As the doctor honestly told you to be ready for the worst, you must also strive for the best. Live your life to the fullest, and strive for you to be happy, as this is essentional for your well-being too. You can do this, man.
Please take care, and always be well.
You're a part of this community, a part that has been here a long time, and speaking for myself as someone who's sister had Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia and was cured after a bone marrow transplant, I am so, so so happy you are in remission.
And even if your approach is "faceless smut machine", (which is a super valid approach!), no one's going to forget that there's a person on the other side of that. For something as serious as cancer, people are gonna care.
To top it off, I worry I'm oversharing but: you're kind of the reason I give a shit about adult art? Like in the long term, why I value adult art as an ART and not just porn. Way back to when you were posting that funky shit on tumblr. And I know I'm not the only one cursed/inspired to think really hard about gigantic asses because of you. An actual tastemaker and trendsetter. I say this now because of how evidentially easy it is to let the opportunity pass.
Here's to many more years to come
I hope your road to recovery is as painless as possible. Considering how much enjoyment your art has given us weirdoes, it damn well deserves to be.
