Lack of activity and reason for my absence

by
Hey everyone!

Hope you are doing great and have a nice lovely Sunday! ^^

So, I've been meaning to write a journal entry for a while now, I just didn't know how to approach it.
Some of you may have noticed I've been absent for a few months now, only occasionally dropping by when I had the energy.

The reason for my inactivity is due to a chronic illness I've been dealing with for almost two decades now. (Crohn's Disease)
Because of its long term negative effect on my body, despite getting stronger and stronger medications, surgery became inevitable and, in November, I finally got to the operation.

Unfortunately, severe complications emerged, it was resolved, then after a week they released me, thinking i was fine.
But then I had to return to the hospital for a second surgery just three weeks after the first one. Difference was: this particular operation was a life-saving one (apparently one day delay could have had dire consequences).

I'm okay now, but it took a toll on me and I needed to take some time away from everything. There is a third (and final, I hope) surgery planned.
But for the time being I'm back and will upload new art I've been managed to do. I'm really not great with words, but I wanted to let you know what has been happening.
This community has been very kind to me, and I can't thank you all enough, and I'm here to stay! ^^

As for the future: I'm hoping after everything is done and I'm healed I can properly focus on my art.
I have a lot planned (new ocs, comics, etc.) and I intend to pull through, and continue what I love to do.

I sincerely hope everyone's doing okay, and, if by chance you have question, I'll try to answer them.

Take care!

Geez, sorry you had to deal with that for such a long time. At least I'm glad you managed to get good surgeries, and lets hope the third one is as successful as can be. Good luck with everything and try not to force yourself too much.

Yah, fingers crossed that it'll be the last at least for a looong while.  ^^

I send positive thoughts for your last surgery to go very well! I adore your art (especially your Meowths), and excited as I am to see more, I hope you're are doing everything you need to keep yourself safe and healthy, and you take as much time as you need to take care of yourself - relax, take your time, and don't stress yourself out

Crohn's. Damn, that sucks. Hope you're done with flare-ups for a while.

Sorry to hear that you have Crohn's Disease, Nekome :(

Wishing you a smooth (and hopefully final) 3rd surgery, as well as a speedy recovery.

Ouch! Last year I had to get my gallbladder taken out due to a severe case of gal stones and my gut getting infected from the gallbladder going gangrene. If the level of pain I dealt with is anything like you must have endured, I definitely feel for you. Here's hoping that you get better soon and back to normal.

Yah, I think it's close but you know, everyone deals with pain differently. I can tell you, it was not pleasant (they also removed my gallbladder too so there is that XD). Thank you for kind words and I hope you are okay too ^^

Its been more than a year of recovery. But I'm finally seeing the light at the end of the tunnel on that front.
