Hello,

I just wanted to give a status update of my status for anyone wondering.

Things haven't been going very well, as usual. Cheif among the issues is the fact that my living situation and day job have given me so much stress lately that it put me in the emergency room. I'll just summarize.

For a few days straight I had been getting strong headaches that just wouldn't go away. As I have very shitty free health insurance, I was reluctant to do anything about it, but I eventually went to urgent care. There, they took my blood pressure and said that even without the headaches, I needed to go to the emergency room. I obviously didn't want to do this because I knew it would financially cripple me.

My standard doctor also wouldn't see me because of the high blood pressure, until I went to the ER. Some short time later, I was in the emergency room, between waiting and getting a CT scan, I was there for 8 hours.

Hypertension. I think my blood pressure was roughly 160/90, something like that. I have some meds now, and it's slowly bringing it down, but the stress at my job causes frequent headaches, especially when I move fast.

Anyway, I checked the insurance and the total charged was 6k+, and I have a $7,500 deductible so they likely aren't covering shit.

I do have some commissions in the pipeline, but it has been extremely hard to motivate myself after my shift to do much other than recover. I will keep doing my gest to get to those, and I'm sorry for any delays my commissioners are experiencing.

Much love,
