Hello FA friends!

Sorry I've been so absent lately. Some of you are aware that I got sick in July 2014. Between then and now many things have happened such as: Catching Mono, Eight surgeries, Short term disability, long term disability, job loss, potentially loosing the house etc... Honestly, it's enough to drive one a bit bonkers.

I found out this week that I have to endure another two surgeries. One will be very soon - i.e. as soon as the surgeon can get me in. The next will happen about 5-6 months from now. During all of this I've still been going to St. Mary's for the drug trial. To me I see improvement but then again it could be in my head as I desperately want/need hope.

However, the doctors have decided on one more treatment and that will be in October. If there is no improvement, then I will begin applying for other trials. All of this while I continue to fight the state for benefits - deal with loosing my career - and trying to save the house. Plus the pain of everything and there is a lot of pain happening ... I digress.

I don't mean to be so absentee. It just is what it is. My life is insanely crazy right now. There has also been a lot of relationship drama and to be honest ... I'm just avoiding it. I understand that I can't "run" away from the problems as they will catch up to me.

I fully intent on dealing with them all - it is just. I want the chance to relax and heal and take care of me first. Then I'll deal with the others. I'm also hoping to go to Archon - a nice 3 day distraction. Potentially Moonblossom will come see me and go as well. Which means that this year I will have met two of my favorite people from FA!

So while I am away and dealing with all the things, I hope that you will all be good to each other and yourselves. I'm truly not far. Leave me messages and pokes and whatnot. I will catch up and I treasure each and every one of you for being in my life.

Until we speak again,

-Angelis
