(After this update im gonna try to post at least a few chapters of actual art and not just me blubbering about crap or stupid things from the internet lol)

GATHER 'ROUND, CHILDREN, IT'S STORY TIME!

So like a year ago maybe about a week and a half-two weeks before christmas i was on the bus ride home from school on a friday and my stomach hurt, but it wasnt like throwing up stomach hurt, it was like legit pain in my lower gut... i didn't think much of it at the time cuz my Monthly Satan's Blood Sacrifice had just ended like a day ago and the entire cycle was still regulating and still doing new things, so i thought, "ok this is probably just cramping." Keep in mind I had never had cramping before so i wouldn't be able to know what it felt like.

Yeahno. It wasnt period cramping.

I got home and told my parents about the pain and they seemed worried at first but eventually they passed it off as cramps just like i did. It kinda wore off after an hour or so and i thought nothing of it. Saturday went by and nothing happened and i thought that the weird pain had passed.

Then i woke up on sunday and immediately felt like i was dying. It hurt sooooooo bad, omg. The pain came in waves at first, it would get bad and then wear off a bit and when it did wear off i would walk around at act a bit more normal. At this point my parents knew something was up and they kept monitoring me, asking me what the pain felt like, giving me pain pills and stuff AND THE PILLS BARELY DID ANYTHING BTW

Finally at about like 11 in the morning (i woke up at 8:30ish) i was just crying and holding myself from the complete agony. It hurt soooooo bad i cant even describe it. The pain didnt dim down anymore and it was just horrible. I felt like if i stopped moving it would hurt more but it also hurt to try and walk so i would just sit on my bed and rock back and forth or vibrate my leg to distract myself from it.

So finally my parents brought me to an urgent care center thing so i would get immediate help (the car ride sucked i was crying from pain the whole time and i could barely even move or fidget around and for some reason the traffic just had to be ridiculous that day)

So we got there and it took forever for the center to actually do anything and at that point i felt super tired and lightheaded, it felt like when you pull an all-nighter and everything is kinda fuzzy and muted. So i chilled out in a room with a billion blankets they gave me and they poked my stomach like 5 billion times, and they took an x-ray i think and an ultrasound WHICH HURT SO FUCKING BAD

The center didn't know what was up with me but we figured it out eventually. ((KINDA GROSS WARNING COMING UP)) Turns out i literally had a 6-inch freaking ovarian cyst stuck up inside my damn fallopian tube, fun right? Is this what pregnancy feels like?

But anyway i was transported to the hospital where i was hooked up to an IV and stuff and they tried a few different pain medicines until they found one that actually worked. I spent a few days in the hospital and had to do some more tests and another ultrasound until i finally would go into surgery.

I of course couldn't eat or drink anything but it didn't matter cuz i wasn't hungry anyway. On the entire way to the operation room i was texting Sora about the situation since i wasnt at school (she was all concerned for me, but we started joking a bit too)

So surgery happened, i woke back up and felt a little better but also kinda hurt in a different way. They actually didn't completely slice me open, thank god, just made a few small cuts and somehow got the cyst out through them. Idk how but i dont really care

After that it was kinda boring, i could basically only eat jello and gross vegitable broth for like 3 days. The rest of my family came to visit and my bro spent the night with me and he had brought our old playstation 3 and we played some games and stuff

I tried to open a kit kat that my dad gave me and i actually couldn't cuz i didn't have enough strength. Its kinda sad, i wasnt even strong enough to open a damn much-needed candy bar. So my dad opened it for me while i fell into a moment of depression lol.

My grandma came to visit me and i have nothing against her, i love her, but god did those 3 hours suck! I guess she believed in "laughter is the best medicine" cuz she kept making jokes and trying to make me laugh whenever she could. And each time i would laugh and i would wanna die because it hurt so bad to laugh. Me and my family keot dropping hints at her to stop but she didn't of course. But my grandma left and it got calmer again.

I spent maybe 4 or 5 more days at the hospital until i was released and i basically just chilled out and slept for like 3 weeks, cuz i couldn't go back to school the few days after i got out of the hospital and then christmas break started lol.

I couldn't run or really do much for like 2 months afterwards but im already so freaking lazy it didn't even really matter lmao.

Basically thats it but just to add a bit more onto it that probably no one cares about, when i finally did get back to school Sora surprised me with a super-late christmas gift that she wasnt able to give me before break started. She just up and busts out of her backpack an official pokemon plush of Glaceon, my favorite pokemon. AND I LOVE IT SO MUCH THANK YOU STILL EVEN THOUGH THIS WAS ALL LIKE A YEAR AGO *virtual furry hug*

So yeah thats how i almost died. Cuz the cyst was so huge and infected it could have like exploded inside my freaking reproductive system and got infected and murdered me if we didn't remove it. But it didn't and we got it out. Yay. Bye.
