Congenital
Hi everyone! Fall/winter holidays have come and gone. It’s a new year. I was lucky enough to go to an artist residency for a bit in the meantime, and finally got over the writer’s block I’d been having. So here’s a short comic about my back pain issues, inspired by the latest (and most miserable so far) flare-up. Luckily, with consistent PT and some patience, I’m almost back to before. But It still left me thinking a lot about hidden/inconsistent disabilities and how so many people I know suffer from them. Not trying to get pity from anyone with this. More, just remember to check in on your friends, ask them how you can help, ask them what they need. We’re all temporarily abled, and old age will come for everyone. Be gentle with yourselves. Be gentle with others.
