I’m tired of bad news… (Patreon)

I’m tired of bad news... I’m tired of getting them. I’m tired of giving them. But I just had another major one.

You guys know I lost my dad to cancer around last Halloween, and I did mention that his brother was also sick… well… I just got a phone call I was dreading for a while, and he is now on his last weeks / days.

I am rather close to that part of the family. He and his wife use to be my brother’s godparents, and since my own godfather’s bailed on us when I was still a kid, I kind attached myself to them instead. They were the coolest anyway :P I am also pretty close to their daughter, who, when my kid brother killed himself 23 years ago, where the only one really there for me, while all my other cousins where regarding me as their comfort. A role I am always ready to play, even if at that particular time felt a bit weird. But not her, she was my rock, and I’ll forever be grateful to her for that.

Having both our fathers’ going through similar situations at the same time, we where both more focus on ourselves this time around. But we kept in tough and shared what we were going through on a regular basis. I’d probably be at her place right now if it wasn’t for Covid.

I don’t know how the next few weeks will go. I’ll be home, I’ll be working. But I just want you to know what's going on, just in case I need to disappear a few days.

Ps: I was sick yesterday, major headache, I couldn’t stand to look at my screen. But I’m working on the line work of page 11 and still aim to release it by the end of the week.
