There is something you need to know about me, is important

Hi people. Maybe you recently notice I am posting a bit slow the pictures and else.

Well I am passing for a lot of things right now caused me a lot of stress... and I am messed up.

---

The first thing is, with my family we rescued 4 cats from the roofs of my neighborhood: 3 kitties and the mom.
There passed around 2 weeks and finally we found for they today a new home for 2 kitties and the mom, however we couldn´t put one of the kitties, because all were ferals, wild, whatever, and catch all was painful. So the kitty left probably will live with us.

The second thing, and is about cats too. In home we already have 5 cats, but were not agree with the visitors, so one is thinking on left the house, and well, I dont want because one of those is favorite of my sister. So the next week workers will modify a part of the house for prevent the cats escape... or others come. In the same time, another of our cats felt bad, and we sended her with the veterinarian for take a look. Well she needed a surgery... but the result was not good. The veterinarian is infected by bad cells on all her stomach, so maybe on the future she will generate leusemia and live few time. So I am caring her with my family and trying to make for this kitty the best days for her.

---

The third thing and is probably the most important.  I don´t wanted to talk about it but I think is important to everybody need to know.

I have time fighting with an issue on my eyes. All started on 2022 but this year is getting worse. Lately I can see a weird colorful purple halo on my right eye and this obscure my line vision. So I went with a doctor for see what is going on and well, the result is not good either.

I have glaucoma and I think is very advanced, and is not helping me the point about my myopia and astigmatism are advanced too. Exist the posibility about I will end blind, but I dont know when. I feel I am running of time, on some moments the vision looks like is getting good, but sometimes don´t. I am starting to use drops for reduce the tension on my eye (but are very painful to use) and change the habits for try to save my eyes, and one of those changes is I decided draw less, and probably I will start to use AI for help me to draw more faster without force my eyes too much. So no comissions for now, no trades, nothing of stress... I cannot even carry things more heavy than 10 kilograms. My situation is... not good.

In case I end blind I am putting all my galleries and pictures on patreon as zip packs, and all the money is collected there will be for my medicines or for my family if something force me stop to draw.

---

And well, all this thing and else passed this month. I am so tired and exausted. There are other points I omited by ran of time, but I think those are the more important you needed to know.

And that´s all, I wanted to share this with you. I wish you the best and I am sorry if I cannot draw as before. My plans, ideas and even dreams have been cut in half. But life is life, and well, I need continue living... as I can.

See you and take care.

Es verdaderamente devastador, que alguien de tu talento tenga esta situación tan horrible. Ojala pudiera hacer mas por ti, pero no soy mas que otro amateur en estos mares. Cuida tu salud, ayudate de las herramientas que puedas, y rodeate del amor y apoyo de tu familia. Te mando un gran abrazo fraternal y que ojala los pronosticos mejoren a la larga, y que en el mejor de los casos, la medicacion mantenga al minimo el glaucoma. fuerza amigo.

Créeme que es para mi devastador, porque toda la vida me he rodeado de cosas visuales, desde dibujos, pinturas, películas, videojuegos y ahora las IAs.

La verdad no se qué haría si me quedara ciego, creo que mi vida ya no tendría sentido. Me siento muy triste porque ahora siento que todo lo que he hecho es en vano, para qué hago tantos dibujos si después ni los voy a recordar? o, pra qué hago una videoteca si no podré ver todas las películas? Pero bueno, los caminos que recorremos en la vida son extraños y muchas veces son caminos que no queremos recorrer. En este momento así me siento, como si estuviera al borde de un acantilado, sabiendo que al frente es por donde debo pasar. Y estoy resignado a lo que pase, sea bueno o malo...

Ya quiero que existan los trasplantes de ojos o prótesis de ojos cibernéticos.  :v

I hope your cats and you get better, sorry to hear about your eyes. Do you like to write? Even without seeing, screenreaders have gotten pretty good. Personally, I love audiobooks and use closed captions whenever there's an option too, though I'm among the seeing. Don't give up your love of creating yet, it's still possible to express yourself without a drawing.
Kindly,
a reader

Mmm, if I lose the view I will not able to write either.

If I do that... I will need asistence for transcription... or a capture voice app...

I'm actually looking for a good offline voice capture app myself... I found one, but it sends it to a server. Very annoying. I went to some springs in the woods and had like no service, so it wouldn't have helped there at all. For some reason, though I turned on Google Voice, the button is not on the Google Keyboard for my Android phone. So I was trying to find an alternative...

Sadly, they all seem to use the cloud...

Im so sorry to hear this... No one should have to deal with those kind of issues... I hope something happens that can help with your eyes and that blindness isn't in your future. And I'm sorry for the sweet kitty too, it's so sad she has ended up with such a harsh issue too, and I hope she can love comfortably and happily. I send all my love to you and your kitty, and hope things can turn for the better soon

And you know what about that cat? is the one we all love in the house, even my mom buy clothes for her because her fur is very tight, so she needs something warm for cover. I feel bad for her, she is so adorable.

Now with the other kitty is a problem. Our idea was put on adoption the 3 kitties and the mom, but we failed on capture one of the kitties. So now will live with us only we cannot find a good family for him... or she, I am not sure what is that cat, with the same about is simpossible catch it.

This year, 2024, I knew it would be difficult, but I don´t expected it would be super difficult and stressful.

And I think we don´t we seen nothing yet.

omg dude i'm so sorry to hear that! :(

keep taking the medications as instructed and hopefully stop any more damage to your right eye

maybe with time it will even reverse the damage
Atlasfield

I don´t think I can reverse the damage. The doctor said me the use of those drops is permanent, for all life.

I think is only about time suddenly I don´t see anything.

I am so scared.

it sounds like your glaucoma is slowly progressive over years or maybe decades

the good news is that you probably won't lose all your vision suddenly

and with the eyedrops it should slow down or even stop the progression

i truly wish you the best dude, take good care of yourself

may your eyes remain as healthy as possible <3

Hope things will get better. 🫂 You're an amazing artist and, more importantly, seem like a very nice person.  If you ever find you're unable to make art, not only can you do the zip packs thing on Patreon, but I'd also suggest a GoFundMe.  I'd be willing to donate to that.
Atlasfield

One time I almost used GoFundMe, it was on an emergency on 2020, when my sister suffered an accident on another country and it was during the covid emergency, so no planes and those things. Thankfully some donated before I started a campaign for make her come back.

If I end blind, or with my view more damaged, I will consider it.

I am so scared to end blind, all my life is around visual things: pictures, paints, videogames, movies (I have a large collection of animations... and I don´t even see all). End blind is like lose any sense in my life.

I only hope I can get more time for... well, whatever happen, find another sollution, or a way for do not suffer too much the lost.

We are in the same situation regarding eye issues.  I have a similar disease called Keratoconus and the damage has been done to my right eye.  I had surgery done on it earlier this year,  I will get the left eye surgery next week.  But I am fortunate to have surgery done for free because my service in the military.  I will be on an eye drop treatment for some time like how Glaucoma has.  My great grandmother had it and I never knew because she just treated it with eye drops.  I hope you can afford a laser surgery to reduce your swelling and then have to only treat with eye drops.  Like yours, what has been done to the eye can not be fixed and its a disease to live with for life.  Eyes are important and those fortunate to live without eye issues are lucky.
Atlasfield

Oh no, I didn´t knew you had that issue too. I feel bad for you.  :(

You know what? we are sick, and make me angry people inject random things on their eyes, or go to put tattoos. Is such a dumb thing, eyes are for me sacred since I was a kid.

I don´t understand how people don´t care for something is as you said very important.
