I learned from this that I'm not doing enough to fight this off, that I'm absolutely letting this autoimmune disease end my life. I cant keep doing thatβnot ready to quit.
But treating this is wildly expensive, and I cannot do it alone. Every coffee turns to medical care!

Tried to take my first little walk since the flare. I spent 10 months of hard work building up to 20 minutes on a predictable, careful, slow path...
And every single step is gone. I can't do any of it. All that work, just gone.
Tbh, I'm heartbroken. Feeling very "why bother" about the future.

Flare update!
β¨οΈ Vision continues to return and stabilize. Been super careful about how much I work, but I'm up to about a 6-hour day comfortably!
π₯° Me and The Kid are staying isolated inside but high spirited about it.
π« Follow-ups ahead for new/more aggressive treatments.
It's all progress!

Our friends dropped off a huge care package while I'm recovering and isolated. They even included treats for Pebs and new bookmarks for The Kid π
Having extremely disabled friends isnt always easyβwe know that. There is burden! But sometimes the right ppl come into our lives, and it's everything.

It's hard to be human at all right now.
And you? You're a creatorβa superhuman.
That's even harder.
Build community. Build in breaks. Build patience. But whatever you do?
Don't stop. We need you now more than ever. π

Hubs and I absolutely love living New Mexico, including the laid back culture here.
But there is no gentle middle ground between the maΓ±ana culture here and the hurry-up-and-wait culture we brought from the East Coast. There's a collision in parking lots when somehow we are EARLY AGAIN.

We have to go to A Thing tomorrow, and the organizer reached out to make sure I'll have the access and space I need to stay safe/well.
I can count the number of times this has happened on 2 fingers.
It sucks that being accessible is basically heroic, I wish it were the norm, but I'm so grateful.

I mean, sure, it'd be nice if everyone could hire and afford an editor, but even if you CAN, you have to be able to edit your own book, too--and editing POV is a huge challenge. Let's see if we can make it a little less daunting together!

Please don't let this completely run out of steam. Thank you so much to everyone who has donated and shared so far; we have a long way to go before we aren't absolutely going to drown, but I might have a tiny bit of hope at the moment.
My autoimmune disease is progressive and terminal; it will make me blind, paralyze me completely, end my life. I have to constantly battle back against it, and I've been doing the bare minimum for years because of cost. I need more, and I need help.
Every single cent helps.
