Hey guys, Been a little while. From now on I think update posts like this will be less frequent; I don't think it helps anyone to report in every two weeks to confirm I am in fact still a cripple, least of all myself. In this case I've been awaiting a procedure which I had a few days ago, an injection deep into my pelvis, in the hopes that I could report something positive. I'll know more after the follow-up, but it did have some results which maybe hold some answers. It didn't make me unable to stand for a week like the last one did, so that's something. CS remains in my mind at all times while I try to juggle everything else. I have my mum to take care of, a three-year argument with the DWP over my (in)ability to work, and expenses skyrocketing while income decreases, same as everyone else. And just like everyone else, I'll continue hunting for the way forward. Thank you everyone for your continued support. In a very real sense it means the world to me. I'll never stop trying to get to you all what was promised.
Without going into details, every time I look at a local GoCo project that has dragged on for years with literally no tangible progress and will almost certainly end in a court case when the contractor fails and/or bails after fleecing billions from the State, I can't help thinking that even if you burned 99% of it, the money would still be objectively better spent on CS. It's a cruel world, boss.
It's so good to hear from you! To be honest I was starting to feel a bit worried, hearing about how your conditions have been and your on-going health battles - I can't imagine the pain all of that brings but at least you are still pushing through it all! It's probably a bit weird to hear from a stranger on the internet who doesn't know you at all, but just knowing glimpses of what's going on in your life and experiencing my own dark periods of life and depression... I want to make sure you know how amazing you are. Not only for pressing on despite debilitating circumstances but for continuing to pursue this project even though I'm sure much of the joy of it has now been replaced with huge burdens and a lot of guilt. Maybe that's just projection though, I'm still just a random stranger on the internet lol What I mean to say is though, if anyone I've seen in this community deserves support for their amazing talents and creativity I think you take the cake, at least in my eyes. I can't offer much like money but I hope a few little words of encouragement help. And I can't wait for the day when it all comes together and we can all enjoy just how much of your life you have put into making this project a reality! I'm usually not very active and hardly post on anything but I like to think I'm part of the invisible majority of people on the internet, silently cheering you on! So just know there's more of us out there who are anticipating your success! I hope you get your answers as to what could be affecting your body the way it is and things get better for you! And that you can eventually accomplish what you set out to do, in your own time.
