They weren't sure what it was, but they knew it was bad. There was an 'abnormality' in the thoracic area of my spine. After some MRIs an CAT scans, I was admitted into the hospital that night. My wife and I decided to go to the emergency room to get some answers. On Monday February 11th, I called again, an still nothing available. By February 9th, I couldn't walk without the aid of a cane. I called several and nobody had any appointments earlier than 6-8 weeks out. They suggested I make an appointment to see a neurosurgeon. They did an MRI but it was only on my lower back. I knew I had a bad disc, but I knew these symptoms were beyond that. I called a neurologist and they ran some tests and said I had a mildly bulged disk in my lower back that was causing the problems. I do not want to go into details on them, but they seemed alot like early stages of MS. By the first week in February I started getting concerned as a slew of other symptoms started showin up very quickly that were not good. In janury my symptoms started getting much worse to the point I had trouble getting around. I thought I just pulled a muscle or strained something horseplaying with Oliver. Now, on to the bad stuff that has happened to me since my last post.īack in December I started having some numbness in my left foot and had some difficulty walking. I also got a Thor related cover commission.įor Christmas, my wife got me a Tim Tyler Avengers themed cover commission featuring the Black Knight and Sersi. Very nice fella, and an incredibly talented artist. Silas accidentally painted the characters in the wrong costume, and in lieu of a refund he offered to redo the piece and sen me both paintings at no extra charge. I bought a very reasonably priced DC Girls piece and requested a Polaris and Havok piece. I also ordered a Thony Silas Havok and Polaris during one of his sales, where if you bought a piece you could get a commission for half price. Sunny Lee gifted me with an awesome Havok and Polaris commission, as a companion piece I ordered a year or so ago. There was a slight mixup on shipping the piece but I eventually got it, and it is awesome. In December I ordered a Steve Scott Baroness vs Lady Jaye commission.

It was listed on the website for over $1K, and I got it for a fraction of that. I also snagged an Ed Benes 11x17 colored pencil drawing of MJ Watson on ebay for a hell of a price. Again, Tom did not disappoint with the request. In March I got a Tom Hodges 11x17 color commission to be picked up at a convention, and a fellow collector was kind enough to pick it up on my behalf. I asked for something sexy, but yet clues as to who she is. I gave Randy complete creative freedom on the Hawkeye piece for her costume, as she hasn't really had a real costume. He had a sale which was too good to pass up in April, so I grabbed these 2 pieces. I have really loved his art for a long time but couldn't justify the pricing of the size of art I collect (11x14 or 11x17). I've gotten some great art over the last 9 months or so.Ī Red Riding Hood (Zenescope GFT) and a Kate Bishop Hawkeye by Randy "Rantz" Kintz. Some good, some GREAT, some.not good at all. Anime expo 2023.With all of the other social media outlets, I actually forgot about having this page.
