Okay. Well.So, yeah ... about three weeks ago, I found out I had cancer. The doctors can't confirm exactly what type it is until after a biopsy (which I am looking forward to. Oh yes), though they've got a fair idea.
It goes without saying that this came as a bit of a shock. Or more accurately, as one great big fuck-off shock. The last few weeks have been difficult to say the least, and I've now got a bunch of chemotherapy to look forward to.
I would have updated the comic before now, but drawing - an activity which largely involves me sitting by myself with lots of time to think - has been considerably less appealing than usual. It's been a challenge to sit down at the board and get something finished, though I'm glad I've done it. I just wish I could say what's going to happen with updates in the future - but never having been through this before I've no real idea what's going to happen, or how I'm going to take it. I guess I'll find out soon enough.
Oh yeah, and on top of this, I also have a horrific cold.
Which sounds like a minor matter, but it's frustrating knowing that I'm going to spend a significant part of the next six months feeling like shit - and my body apparently thinks the best way to prepare me for this is to make sure I feel like shit now as well. I mean, I'm probably struggling because I'm sick, but still. I reserve the right be frigging grumpy about it.
