This is an un-themed personal blog. I am always available for new friends!

I like to promote art I like. I post content from other sites.

I tend to avoid nsfw, but I try to tag correctly.

I post when I feel like it.

I am disabled so my availability is irregular 💙

I welcome mutuals and I am often available via comments, asks, and DMs.

So my spine is damaged in three separate regions:

neck, middle back, and lower back.

In my neck: two of my vertebrae are slowly sliding forward out of position. One over another. The discs between them have deteriorated and grown bone spurs that are pressing against my spinal cord. This has been getting worse since 2015.

The good news is my spinal cord isn't damaged yet, just being pressed on.

In my middle back: my spine curves sideways 20 degrees (that's scoliosis). Three discs have herniated meaning they've burst out of position and are pressing into the space where my spinal cord runs.

One of them has actually broken apart and a loose piece is just there.

In my lower back: my spine curves the opposite direction from my middle back, so overall my spine makes an S-shape.

At the very bottom, a disc is pressing on a nerve so hard that there's literally no space left around that nerve at all.

I'm not okay but I'm not in immediate danger.

I just finally have proof of what my body has been trying to tell me for a long time.

Thank you to everyone who got me to 1000 likes!
