Health Update

Hey there! If you don’t follow me on tumblr or twitter, you may have missed my reasoning for the serious lapse in updates!

At the beginning of this month, I went to the hospital for what I thought was appendicitis, but a CT scan revealed a mass on my right kidney. Doctors found that I had renal cell carcinoma, a form of kidney cancer, that had already spread to some of the surrounding lymph nodes. It just so happened that there was a surgery opening for the following week, and I had my kidney and the affected lymph nodes removed on October 19th. I was in the hospital from the 19th through the 27th, and now I’m home! I still have a lot of recovering to do, so updates will be on an indefinite pause until then. Thank you so much for your patience! Hope to see you soon!
