It's time I tell you...

For the past month and a half I've been suffering from a gradually worsening issue with my health. It always starts with a painful pressure in my esophagus and stomach leading to mild to severe difficulty breathing, and a severe anxiety almost every single night. Sometimes this leads to fainting. I am awaiting my health insurance policy to kick in around January since I was unable to qualify for a sooner date.

It's a lot like when your PC or car just decides to stop working, and you have no idea what's wrong, so it's extremely frustrating.

A quick visit to the (still expensive) local clinic was at least able to rule out my heart and lungs being the origin of the issue. Though a proper series of tests is always recommended, it at least "looks" like the problem could be related to other organs.

These last few troubling weeks have been partly why I've been so quiet for so long. I tend to have the "might get over it any day now" mentality, so I wait, and wait and wait. It's not getting better though, and I hope you guys can remain patient with me while I remain patient about my current lack of insurance. I'd love for a doctor to simply tell me what's wrong. Right now my best guess is that my stomach has decided to visit the ol heart and lungs... and it's really cramping their style every time I eat even the smallest meal, leaving me with lots of pressure and pain.

I will keep you guys updated on my situation, and will let you know whatever the doctor tells me in January. Unfortunately as a side effect of the pain and inability to breathe, I cant spend too much time working on art as it's extremely difficult to focus.

If the volume of work, and quality seems lacking this month, please know I am trying my best. I cannot afford to just give art a break during this rough time. I understand if some of you want to bail, but for those of you who continue to support me: Thank you for your understanding and patience.
