I'm still terrified that I'll wind up getting another repetitive strain trying to write with the swipe keyboard, but so far it is working.

I wrote 2500 words yesterday, and around 3000 today. I also just finished chapter 53, which means I'm done with the initial write of Block 5. The block is sitting at nearly 100,000 words!

Hello everyone, Noah here.

I'm holding steady with my mental health. I am not any worse or better than I was at my last update for you all back in April. Dopamine therapy is slow but steady. I think it will work eventually.

On the topic of pony fanfiction, I'm currently working on another shameless self-insert fic with my second mother, Princess Luna. Expect fluff and wholesome antics. This will be a sequel to "Luna is always there for you".

So, my cancer may have come back.

Yeah.

They're going to do some tests after I get back from the US trip, but there's good evidence from my blood tests to suggest a recurrence. This is... highly worrisome. It's starting to keep me up at night. This thyroid cancer wasn't supposed to be so aggressive. Hopefully Iodine is still effective against it. There's no reason to believe it won't be, but still. Worries me. Amps up my usual anxiety, that's for damn sure.

The vaccine administered to me was Sinovac. Few minutes have passed and I already felt slight pain on my left side and when I got home, my head was aching. I'm anticipating that the side effects will remain in a week or two. I will update you about my health from time to time. My 2nd dose will be on the 1st week of August.

Hey there! Quick lil update for those of you who were wondering where I went...

I've taken a month-long hiatus thus far, and in that span of time, I've been seeking therapeutic counsel and taking medication. Also, I've been spending more time with friends and family as a way to cope with my depression and anxiety, and I'm happy to say that this has proven effective.

Since last week, I've been experiencing pain on my back, neck, and both of my arms. These have hindered me from getting a good night sleep. Every night, I applied different brands of liniment on the affected areas, as well as taking paracetamol to alleviate the pain, albeit temporarily. I began experiencing fatigue this week and it has hampered my daily routine. I don't know how long the side effects will last, but I will do the best I can to ease them with proper care and medication.

Good news, I am still recovering from my injuries. Tentatively I will be released from the hospital next Wednesday to home health care (we hope) and will be able to continue recovery there. We will see what the morrow brings.

Bad news, I have used up all my backlog of chapters and am now at the pivitol arch of the story, requiring time to put all the subplots together. The next several chapters are all intertwined, and likely need to be written together.
