cane users are valid-- we are pm full time cane users, and we're thinking about getting forearm crutches cause our cane isn't giving much support anymore. we have a rollator walker but its big and we're a little ashamed to use it cause things our mom says and how people will look at us. it's also big and we don't want to take up space. but our rollator walker helps a lot. we need to move out soon so we can be ourselves.. mom doesn't like the idea of us getting forearm crutches but we think theyll give us bettee support than our canes.. we are actively saving for a pair now.. - Pip

I know I keep going missing, but that’s sorta the problem with being a disabled artist
Image one :
Four drawings of a humainoid, cartoony frog wearing a vest, a scarf, a poofy white button down, tan pants, and dark green shoes. There is a drawing of him standing with his arms out, one of him making a kissy-face with his hands together, one where he is leaned backwards with his hands together with a squiggly to signify anxiousness, and one of just his face crying. There is also doodles of a phone with a frog accessory, with a text to speech app up and a speech buble that reads “I am ok”. There is also a doodle of a strawberry, and one of a notepad.
Image two :
Four images of a humainoid, cartoony dog wearing a pearl necklace, a tan button down shirt which is completely open in the front but is tucked into her skirt, brown shoes, and is using pink forearm crutches. There is a drawing of her standing, one where she is sitting on the floor with her crutches behind her and holding up peace signs, one where she is leaning on her crutches with her elbows while holding her face with her hands, and one of just her face. There are also doodles of her crutches, a concha, and a laptop showing her and the frog on a video call.
Image three :
Four images of a humainoid, cartoony bunny in a light green wheelchair. She is wearing a dark green dress with matching shoes, a spiky choker necklace, and a hoop earing in one ear. In one drawing she is sitting in her chair, another is just her face, one of her pointing at the distance and exclaiming ‘Yes! This is good”, and another where her arms are crossed in front of her with a red X over them as she excalims “NO”. There are also drawings of her wheelchair, a dogwwod branch, and a boba tea.
Image four :
Four images of a humanoid, cartoony cat wearing a light green dress with a dark green underskirt, a white dickey with a pink bow, pink shoes, sunglasses, and using a sight cane. There is one drawing of the cat standing, another of just their face, one where they are licking their paw with yellow diamonds in the air around them to signify cleanliness, and one of them holding a microphone and exclaiming “It is now 3 am. I can’t sleep so neither will you”. There are also drawings of their sight cane, a pink coffe cup, and a slender cookie with chocolate on one end to look like a cat paw.
Image five :
Four images of a humainoid, cartoony bear wearing a short sleeved button up with a light green bow tie, dark green shorts and shoes, and is using a cane. One drawing is of the bear standing, one is of just his face, one is a drawing with his eyes mishapened and red lines coming from him to signify he is angry ehile exclaiming “I’m not lazy, I’m sick”, and another drawing of him rubbing his eye with text that reads “It is time to rest”. There are also drawings of his cane, a stack of waffles, and a bouquet of flowers.
Image six :
Four drawings of the characters from the previous five images. There is a drawing of the frog and cat walking together, one of the bunny and dog side by side while the bunny is holding a boba tea. One of the bear and cat sitting in chairs together, with their respected aids resting on said chairs, and holding coffee cups. Lastly, there is a drawing of the arms of the cat, dog, and bear holding up their mobility aids and multi colored text above them saying “STICKS!”

It’s been awhile since I’ve made one of these.
Image description : a drawing with two panels and a space where a panel would be. On the top half of the drawing, in the space where a panel could be, there is a window pane with rain behind it, there is a painting leaning against the window of red acacia flowers, there is a jar holding paint brushes, as well as a hanging pot with a vine in it hanging from the ceiling. There are lines on either side of this which look like the outline of curtains. In the psnel to the right of this, there is a close up of a side profile of a girl with long brown hair tucked behind her ear, exposing a light blue hearing aid. She has light brown skin with rosy lips. Her eyes are closed and she is smiling. In the bottom panel, there is her hand stroking a paintbrush down a blank canvas. There is a single stroke of red paint. She has dark red nails, a golden bangle bracelet, and a fluffy light blue sleeve. All of the backgrounds are a light pink color.

Crowdfunding yet again 🫠
hello I will try to be brief,my sister is disabled and recently she got horrible news from her doctor that her reflexes have gotten worse,which means she will one day probably become paralyzed unless something is done(also her chronic pain is pretty severe rn which is another bad sign).now they want her to do a bunch of exams + physical therapy+ maybe new medication??we are looking at a bill close to 800€ tho honestly I dont know what's going to happen.the first paragraph you see is nothing but blood work and allegedly we will be able to get those for free so that's a relief.But I'm convinced thats not going to be all I'm scared for what's going to happen to her,I'm scared she will need to have surgery.also long covid is still fucking with me so yeah I'm don't think I will ever find work at this point🫠but who knows maybe I will be fine one day.I'm going to ask for 1200€ just to be safe tho dont be surprised if the amount rises or drops because I again I don't know what to expect with this,the extra money is in case we do need to pay for extra exams,blood work or bills etc
Goodbye for now 15.feb.2024
