Sure sounds like there's gonna be a lot to keep you more than just busy, scaly boy... really wishing you can find at least just enough time for yourself. Can't forget to take care of the most important thing: you!

Godspeed, Chroma, really. You got this, and we'll all be doing what we can, even if it is just encouraging words from the sidelines.

Thank you very much.

That sounds really hard for you, Chroma.

I imagine you feel a heavy sense of responsibility as you try to keep the business going with your own efforts, without the shared help and guidance from your dad, and perhaps a feeling of not wanting to be the one who ends a multi-generational family business and tradition, maybe. All while stressing about whether your dad will get better, and trying to keep your own routines and hobbies going for the sake of your own mental health, even though time for these things is so lacking for you.

Thanks for sharing your struggles with us. I hope that you and your family are as okay as you all can be. Times like these won’t last forever. I cherish seeing your diverse depictions of characters in interesting poses, and I enjoy reading your journals which projects an aura of kindness, peace and gentleness, despite the storm around you.

Thank you. ^~^
Sadly, my dad won't be getting better. I kind of glossed over that a bit, but... that's the situation.
I made an urn for him, and that project was actually a really nice way to process, I think.

Mental health will be a bit of a challenge, but I'll be helping my mom with some things, as well, and even though my family is smaller, we do get along well.

I’m sorry for your loss, Chroma. It sounds like he was a significant part of your life, and I imagine that would feel devastating for you.

The urn is a lovely way to give him a final gift - a personalised thing crafted from your very own hands. I imagine he’d be smiling at you for it. I guess it would have some healing benefits for you too, as you grieve.

My sympathies to you, Chroma. You've been dealing with a lot. I hope things get easier for you and that your father is doing well.

Thank you.
But. The funeral is tomorrow.

With pancreatic cancer, it wasn't unexpected... but it's still difficult.

My deepest condolences. I had no idea.

Nothing with cancer is ever easy.

*Hugs*

My condolences to you and your family during these trying times, friend. Wishing you nothing but the best of luck, and a full-recovery for your father. Looking forward to your return, but do not worry, your absence is valid and completely understandable.

I wish your father a speedy recovery! I hope for nothing but the best for you both c:

I was just thinking about where you'd gone, friend. This is not how I expected to hear it, though. Cancer is a miserable experience, both for those who suffer it, and for those who bear its weight during, and after the suffering. Hopefully the family can recover from this. :(

I'm glad to see you're still around, and wish you all the luck getting back rolling. Take your time! You still have friends and fans here that want to see you well.

You take care of you. My dad is a stage 4 cancer survivor and my grandpa currently has terminal cancer. You think you understand what that is like, then when you experience it you realize how absolutely far off you were with how terrible it is. Your art is fantastic and I will be happy to enjoy whatever you can put out, but not at the cost of your mental health. Please, take care of yourself.

Damn, fuck cancer....

I'm sorry for your loss Chroma, I hope the time you had with him near the end was good.

And be sure to take care of yourself so you don't burn out having to fly things solo, take time, if you can, for grieving.

Good luck Chroma, best wishes to you and your father.
Sad to hear things are going this way but I hope there will be better times for you again <3

*Hugs the Durgan.* Life does have a way of piling things on. Stay strong Chroma.

Maybe a secondary "no pressure" brand new account? where you can just upload whatever and as you like.

Also hey, best wishes to you and your dad, that must be something so heavy to handle. plus managing the family business! Take care of yourself too okay? Glad you're finding things that relax you

Crossing my finger so your dad heals asap.Best wished for him. Also, don't put much pressure on your shoulders. If you need time on your side for your personal life and family business, take it. Nobody here is going to blame you for that. take care ^^

❤️

I am so sorry for your loss...

Sending you all the best wishes from across the world, I hope you will find your peace and balance soon again.

Also sorry to hear of your loss.

And it is good to see your work again.

I'm sorry you're going through so much. You're one of my dearest friends and if you ever want to talk about anything, please message me. I hope everything goes well for you and yours.

IRL is fond of interrupting our hobbies/interests, there's just no getting around it.

You have all my respect for taking care of yourself and your family!

Anyone who makes a living (Or supplements it) via online/Internet stuffs has my empathy when stuffs happen that keeps them away from it. That's not easy to deal with on top of all the rest.

You do what you must, and visit when possible! You know we'll be here minding the 'Fort' till you can return in full and continue with your good work!



Aniwaya

Sorry to hear all of that, though hopefully the fresh start will go well :>

Oh damn that is a lot to deal with. Best dragons be with you <3
