I have cancer...
🕑 Added 2023-01-21 20:50:33 +0000 UTCAs the title says I am about to make a confession.
Today is the day I feel ready to share this information with ya'all.
Sooo, it's never easy to say this, that's why I get straight to the point!
I have an extremely aggressive, extremely malignant and incredibly rare prostate & bladder sarcoma cancer.
The tumour is about the size of 3-4 tennis balls and has not made any metastases yet. It is localised and not yet spreading.
My chances of survival (according to docs) are a bit less than 50%...
I have the diagnosis since fourth of January and had some time to process all of this. My mental health is more than good at the moment and I am in peace with my disease. Luckily I live in Germany, where healthcare is free and pretty much high-tech.
I get treated in one of the best university clinics in europe and the specialists are very much interested in my case, due to its unbelievable rarity.
Just saying I get more than the best treatment, you'd expect.
I already had my first two chemo therapy sessions, with 24 more planned.
It seems like my tumour is already shrinking in size, which is a good sign.
Other than that I can't say much about my therapy....
I'm very very much open about this topic to the public and am happy to educate some people on cancer if they like. I assure you guys that I am fighting as hard as I possibly can and that my mental strength is outstanding atm.
About Brickcraft & Patreon:
Understandably, there won't be much updates for Brickcraft anymore.
Of course I'll make some stuff here and there...
Routine and being an artist is what keeps me alive!
Just... don't expect much. There is no frequency anymore 😓
An active Patreon subscription will still be necessary to download Brickcraft.
This is not because I am extremely money hungry, but because while Germany has good healthcare, it still costs a lot to pay month long treatments.
I hope you understand that I am dependent on some income.
For those who are my patrons for longer: Thank you! ❤
You lovely humans are what kept my back covered while I'm sick.
I am incredibly grateful to be in touch with so many kind and caring individuals.
Of course I understand if you no longer want to subscribe, without frequent updates. It's more than okay to cancel your subscription!
I hope you all have a nice day and are able to enjoy your good health!
Cancer can happen to anyone, anytime!

I was worried seeing there hadn't been an update on your health since Nov. Glad things are looking up and I hope you're able to enter a period of remission! You've done fantastic work with Brickcraft as well!
