Health Update (getting closer)

Fox:

My health is still progressing, but it's so fucking slow. I'll be lucky if I'm able to do any work before the end of the month

I hurt a little less each day, but I'm still dealing with dry, flaking, cracking skin am over my body. My legs have more or less stopped oozing, but my scalp/ears are still having a little of it. The pain when I move is still awful, but less than before. And it doesn't take much activity to go from "oh I have fewer red areas today" to being covered in inflammation.

The smell of my skin is awful, not a normal unwashed smell, but like a sickeningly sweetened dog food. And the smell and flaking skin only draw attention to the itching and burning. I haven't gone a day without crying in weeks and insomnia awaits me each night no matter what time I sleep. I feel like I'm getting close to being functional, but what feels like should take days has taken weeks. And so I can only hope to be able to sit up in bed and draw again soon. I miss it. Sometimes, knowing my work waits for me is the thing that keeps me pushing onward when I want to give up hope. This is the cruelest torture life has forced on me so far, and I'm doing my best to endure it so I can have a normal life again.

I love you all,

Fox
