The skies are getting darker (Life Update)
🕑 Added 2023-02-02 04:52:19 +0000 UTCFirst of all, I'm still strong and positive! People around are nice and caring, my kitty is here and the weather is fine ^^ Things are simply getting a bit difficult for me.
A month ago I had to apologize about a few day delay because I had a hypertensive crisis... Now I have to apologize because my state is only getting worse and soon I might not be able to draw. But don't worry, I will turn Patreon charges off for a month if I won't be able to complete all the tiers this month! ^^ So you will get the completed archive later anyways! :)
Now what's happening: since my first crisis happened, the blood pressure peaks kept attacking me for no reason both with everyday dizziness, weakness, temperature, head and stomach aches. I've spent my whole monthy income on medical checkups and found out I've got: thyroid problems, mold allergy while every flat is molded here, bladder inflammation, either a gastritis or a stomach ulcer (doc wasn't sure, I'm going to get a gastroscopy today) and of course I know my nerves are totally off but I still cannot get a psychiatrist appointment. Gosh! I had my last serious checkup just ONE YEAR AGO and I was absolutely healthy then! Local doctors said I must go to Turkey and visit a clinic there, so I've got plane tickets from 13th to 24th of Feb and a surgery appointment on 16th of Feb (I'm going to get my laptop and my tablet with me though, maybe it will be possible to enjoy some drawing when recovering).
However, all of this is going to suck my wallet dry while my bf still has no income and my roomate has left the country so even a tiny studio isn't affordable for us anymore. On top of that my PayPal account and my money there are unavailable because of an accident ( https://www.furaffinity.net/journal/10458062/ )
Sooo it seems like we've got no choice now but going back home despite staying there might be not safe (especially for men) but if you've got some ideas or advice that would be helpful! Thank you for being so kind to me! ^^

Heartfelt thoughts and prayers for you. For both your health and moving/staying situation. I really can't say I have much advice though as it is a very difficult one I'd be at a loss for too. I would be concerned about returning as it may be difficult to leave again if needed though. Don't feel bad about accepting some $ though. While some people throw out "I need help" notices you have never been one of them and you situation completely warrants it. You have always been one of the nicest and most genuine artists I have ran across and would be happy to help if possible. I also certainly would have no qualms about remaining a subscriber as long as needed until things settle back down. Focus on you and what's important. Let us know anyway we can help. Much ❤

Hm, my friend's PayPal? I feel guilty accepting money though. I wonder what information about safety you've got though ^^

Is there any way we can send money to you? I know just enough about the situation in Russia to understand that going back is NOT a safe option. I am in a position where I can help. At least two others are too. I'm guessing that paypal may be off the menu, but is there another good way to send money?
