I dunno. I’m still pretty unwell and stuck in really shitty circumstances, just without my pet now :(

I’m in physical and emotional pain every day and so tired of it

so many hugs

maybe visit your doctor and have a chat about your health and challenges

I’m going weekly and running out of options for medical interventions

I’m just borked

what did the doctor say about the fungal infection?

That’s a non-issue and being treated. Just a small gift from the visitor 🐈‍⬛🍄

I disagree. I think it's well worth getting help about. You thought it was serious enough to work hard and clean everything, to disrupt your life in a negative way. Advice would be good

That’s manageable, it’s the rest of me that’s borked

I agree with Seagoon - it's worth getting some help for it. You don't want something like this to tip the scales.

I’ll mention it and ask whether it’s fully healed yet or still contagious. Though it would be fitting. Carried off by the fairies via mushroom ring.

I wish I could just grab this guy and bathe him
