    Update, long overdue

    To anyone out there still listening. Hi. I hope you're well, and safe. Obligatory 2020 is hell comment and all that jazz.

    I'm doing well. Not amazing, but amazing is a hard trick to pull right now for any of us.

    I sit here, trying to articulate the emotions I am feeling, and somehow convey them in words. And it's not going very well. I am failing.

    Good news

    Ejection Fraction has gone from 19% to 35%. Three months of effort and support since the hospital has doubled my cardiac output. Remodeling is being seen and hopefully will continue. This is enough to get me out of the life vest and permit me to drive again.

    I am relieved. So thank you to all who have supported me through this.

    Updates wut?

    Hi all,

    Been a while. How've you been? Me? Oh, well... where do I start really... this, in many ways is me putting stuff to words, both for myself and for you. I've not written much in a very long time, so forgive me if I'm writing as much for myself as for others right now. If you just want to know about the fic, skip to the break at the bottom.

Heyas, sudden random medical bossfight! Wait- what? · 11:38pm Dec 23rd, 2017

So yeah, haven't been around much, been devoting a substantial chunk of my time and energy at pursuits that will improve my financial future. Developing a path that should see my needs well taken care of over the coming decades. Making my debts and financial worries more tractable, getting things to where I feel like I have a hold of them. No time for ponies, cept every now and then when I've a free evening to maybe read a story, or try some art, just enjoyment in small ways.

Been working on my health, trying to improve my blood pressure, organize my life around healthier practices, lose some weight, finds some Xen. Be less emotionally intense. All well and good. Seeing some positive steps there as well.

So naturally, if things aren't inclined to drama and life is too boring then- surprise your kidney wants you dead!

I suppose on the bright side I now have an upper-end tick on my scale of 'how painful has something been before?' Cuz this outclassed bone fractures, dislocations and jaw surgery by several orders of magnitude.

Ouch.

Hope you had a good one despite it all, and that the New Year's a bit kinder to you.
