Almost a very heavy year later.....

Indeed I'm not dead. But so far it have been a very heavy year for me.

I wasn't sure if I was going to post this post and to be honest I'm still not sure. So don't be surprised when this blog post is suddenly gone.

First part of the year I had several painting projects going on. Then when  Covid 19 hit our country I had more and more work to do (I am a mailman) because people started to order more and more online. Because of that I had less time to paint. In time because of all the work I became also very tired. This made me stop painting completely.

Then around July everything went wrong with me.

I had intestinal complaints and I didn't feel too well.

First thing I did was a visit to the doctor. But they couldn't find anything so they made an appointment with the hospital for a broad examination. The outcome wasn't good. 

The diagnosis is that I have colon cancer.

Within a few days I had to start with a heavy treatment.

First 5 days of of radiation therapy. Followed by a heavy chemo treatment. This treatment takes 18 weeks. When I write this I still have 5 weeks of chemotherapy to go. Followed by surgery. Goal is a complete healing.

Due to side effects of the chemo I can no longer hold miniatures and so painting is now completely stopped.

Hopefully my next post will be more positive.

An update!

How things are going?
Well just when I found some motivation to paint again all kind of other things happened in my personal life. Not that these were all bad things but it stopped me from painting.
And then the next thing that happened a bursa inflammation (correct English?) in my left shoulder.
All in all I haven't painted anything in this period. It also meant that I had to skip the The Moloch Demons challenge.
I have decided to move this project to 2020.

Now since a few days I slowly started with some minor projects. One of it is to clean and touch up my US Airborne and rebuild it to use it with Battlegroup. Later on I will post about these projects.
Hopefully this will mean I will slowly return on my blog with new painted material.

Back...!?

First let me tell that I had a long thought if I wanted to post the following but decided to do so but left out most of the details.

I know it has been almost 1½ year ago that I posted here for the last time, not sure if there are still any followers of my blog still here.
Although I already didn't post that much anymore it wasn't my intention to stop posting after the last post. But sometimes things in life happen that change all things.
What happened was that I got the news that I needed another surgery. I don't want to go to much in detail about it.
Only to say that all went well. I'm still not at a 100% condition.
It also meant I didn't had any desire to post anything on my blog for a long time.

It doesn't mean that I didn't do nothing in those 1½ year. I still did some painting but not so much as I wanted.
Later on I will post pictures of these painted models.

That's all for now.
