The Future (Patreon)

So its been overdue an update. What, like nearly 2 weeks now since my dad's fall?

There's no real way to sugar coat this, but it seems there's going to be a lot of change from the aftermath from all this. 

My dad is sill in the hospital, a combination of slow service, and additional problems with my dad, namely arthritis in BOTH legs now, high blood and sugar levels and quite concerning, kidney trouble.

At this point, we have no idea what the future holds even at this point. While he can walk with a walking frame a decent distance, we don't know how well he can handle stairs yet. Could be his condition, could be he barely gets much sleep since the guy next to him makes a lot of sound effecting his mental state and thus making out that things are not as bad as they are but he was been known to downplay how serious a situation is before. 

Either he can walk around in the house on his own okay, or there's a chance he spends the rest of his days in a bedroom in bed and just staying there to be cared for by me ad my mother. 

Which comes to the other thing. As my mom has to look after my grandmother every other day, I might have to be a part time carer for my dad. 

If it comes to that, my days of late night work are over and have to be done in the daytime/early evening. Not an easy task as I'm the time of artist/writer who works best during the night. There have been days when I can't draw a thing because its either daytime or I'm needed for something which interrupts the flow  of drawing/writing or I get easily distracted.  

It'll be an adjustment if that's the case, but again we really don't know. It doesn't help that my dad wants to discharge himself the moment his kidneys are normal level again even though the house is far from ready for him and we don't know how well he can walk without help. 

And that's how its been this week and last, helping out my mom with things to prep the house and while she goes out to look after my grandmother. All the while, getting updates if tiny about my dad. Even though I continued my jokey self when Tweeting or commenting in other places, it just helped fight the emotions I'm going through atm. Guess its true that comedy is based on misery. 

Artwise, some has been done during this period but as you can imagine, pretty limited. And the updates will resume as soon as I feel this update has by seen by as many eyes as possible to know what's going on. Long story short, content going forward might slow down a fair bit while me helping out continues and the outcome of my dad's condition. 

I don't want to ask this, but if anyone can help out with either a biggish art commission or even a couple of annual donation tiers to the Patreon, it would help me out a ton as funds have been nearly exhausted for the month and I'm down to nearly nothing till the next Patreon/Fanbox payouts. 

I know there's a bit of a commission backlog and I'd say only commission if you don't mind a lengthy wait time. I will get to them all in due time. 

Some start to the yeah huh? I can only say thank you for being patient with me and for all your support over the years and those that replied or helped out or even just chatted to me to help cheer me up this month, it really has gone a long way. 

Here's to the best outcome, hopefully.
