This isn’t quite what I wanted to use the first journal for, but I feel I should let all of you who were kind enough to watch me know what’s going on.

T’other day I found myself in hospital with not very much blood in my body. The doctors have narrowed it down to aplastic anemia (my immune system seems to be attacking the bone marrow cells that produce blood (I’m borderline severe, yay.)), and I’m one of the ~50% of cases where they don’t know the cause. They can however treat me with ATG (turning my immune system off and seeing what happens) and that should start on Monday. Wish me luck... From then until who knows when, I’ll be even more quiet than usual (you probably won’t notice I’m gone, but I apologise in advance for any ignored comments etc) since I won’t have access to FA. Which is annoying since I was close to finishing and uploading quite a nice new drawing experiment…

So, I’m sorry to have to leave for a time, but I’ll try to get better soon and get back to you awesome folks!

See you hopefully when I’ve got more blood in my blood,
Sylvan
