--- Quote from: kirbysuperstar on September 26, 2012, 07:54:58 am ---So, at the end of July, I finally found a new job. It was going pretty well, for two weeks, then I felt.. really tired and just "off". Went to the doctor, had a blood test.. and was in hospital that night having transfusions. Turns out I have leukemia! That was a fun surprise. So I spent six weeks in hospital having chemo and stuff. While I was in there I had my birthday and the lease ran out on the place I was renting. I ended up temporarily moving interstate and living with my dad who is taking care of me during the rest of my treatment (another at least six months of chemo and then two years of maintenance).

Anyway, didn't mean for this to be a pity party or anything, just thought I'd let you guys know I didn't fall off the face of the earth or anything. Moral of the story: If you feel unwell, get checked out. You never know.

Wow. Thanks for the update and /hugs from all of us at VGC.

Stay strong/positive my friend and keep us updated on things.

desocietas:
Whoa, that's huge.

I've been wondering where you were but would see you on Steam occasionally so didn't think anything too crazy was happening.

Glad you went to the hospital and have family who are are to help you out.. and I think Australia has universal healthcare?

If an American were just feeling "off" they probably would've tried to just sleep it off...

Anyway, don't mean to sound like I'm making light of things.  Really glad you came by to update us; we want to see more of you around here!  Thinkin' of you and your family.

desocietas:
Er, also, happy belated birthday!  ::)

pacpix:
Sorry to hear that man.  Its good to know you are starting to do better.
