Why I have been away
4 years ago
General
Hey all,
Sorry it has been while I haven't been active, and following the many questions in PM I had about it from you all (thank you for your concerns, you guys are adorable), I think it may be time to clarify my situation a little bit more publicly, but don't worry, I will make sure to make it mercifully short.
My close friend and flatmate has been diagnosed with Cancer in stage 4 that is affecting his brain, among other things, and I have been taking care of him for the last 4 months. I'm not alone to do so, his sibling and close friends come and help once in a while, but it has been mainly me. Things are now going forward as he's being move to a care unit where he will stay from this point, because his symptoms now escalated to a point where I cannot take care of him alone anymore, and will become dangerous for me or for himself.
As you can guess, I'm not in a great place at the moment, and it's tricky for me to find the time or the energy to do anything else, outside of the therapy provided by the palliative care, and meditation that both helps me to brace for whatever will come next. However, as I'm now moving back on my own, I may have more time on my hands and will probably crave for activities that will distract me from the current situation, which includes drawing. So who knows, I may become more active in the coming months?
I already know that the coming months will probably be the hardest ones, and I'm preparing myself for it, but there's not much more I can do. So don't worry too much about me, I'm keeping my head above the water.
So yeah, I just wanted to clarify the situation to you all, let you know that I'm sorry I'm not around much, and of course, your moral support is always appreciated and cherished.
I'll see you guys around,
Love you all
