Life Update
Added 2025-08-11 05:39:54 +0000 UTCI'm so sorry, guys.
Last month, I was in a funk and didn't get much art done. Then, on Monday, my sister got injured very very badly at work. So badly, she underwent an amputation on Friday. Seeing her in pain like this, and this large change to her anatomy that will impact her for the rest of her life, has been surreal and very hard. It's like a weird dream. Since Monday when she got medevac'd from her job, most days I have been in the shock trauma center of a hospital in a whole different city. I am exhausted physically, but especially mentally. I've cried a lot. I've learned a lot. I've been so angry at the person who caused this that I've frightened myself.
I have been taking Lyfts to get to the hospital some days. I'm helping her do the mundane every day things she temporarily can't do on her own. I am happily doing it because I love her.
I am so sorry that art will most likely continue to be slow this month, too. Please bare with me. 🙏🏾🙏🏾

I've only got my mother and brother really. I don't know what your family looks like but i feel you, the dissasociative confusing fear? Yeah. And the fucking anger towards some dumbass who could've easily avoided causing the whole thing. Its not easy. Helping someone come back from this shit is gonna be a journey, if i could give you any advice it'd be to stay on top of the anger of frustration, it's easy to get carried away and difficult in the long run to not lash out randomly. I'm preparing to help one of my parents to go to the hospital for a checkup as i'm typing this, but again, sorry this shit is happening but wishing you luck and i'm sure you'll be great help and support for your sister!
