I am hurtled into an infinite loop unable to post so I have to put up this page.
which sort of makes sense because it is such an important moment.
I am also blocked from accessing my old photos in dropbox so I had to redraw this one quickly. It is a caricature of me flatlining in the ICU in April 1986.
because of the pain.
it is about me here today for this reason, I have been held here in Reading, PA for dying ever since. I had another drawing associated with that time, the “ghoul epiphany,” but I can’t reproduce it. It is me ever since. It is why I can’t see old friends, even family members. Just Ian and Alex.
the point is, I just got a new phone after 3 weeks without my tablet and only a flip phone that I couldn’t even text on! This has brought about such a serious change.
Here is the drawing of me in the ICU:

the original is somewhat more elegant.
I am finally over this. Almost 40 years later, and back with the living.
Hello!
(the “ghoul epiphany” drawing is posted in the post “Anybody’s” from about a week ago.)
