Hey guys!

This here is obviously the last picture of the year 2022 from me. And oh my, time flies by sometimes…

As I’ve mentioned before in my Christmas post, this year has been one heck of a ride. For me it didn’t start well and almost didn’t end well either. But let’s start with the positive things!

Even though I did not achieve what I wanted so far career-wise, I didn’t let it get to me. It didn’t throw me into another depression hole, which actually made me really proud. But I’ll keep fighting on that part. Sometimes we all must fight really hard to achieve what we always dreamt of. And there’s always another door we can open if one closes. Or we just open the closed door again because that’s usually how doors work 😉

Life-wise I also achieved a LOT, to say the least. Ever since I’ve started working out and consequently held my interval-fasting, I lost 21kg so far in just one year! Of course, as most of you know, muscles weigh more than fat does. But I’ve been able to keep a constant weight since April and will continue to do so until eventually I will achieve my goal. This new lifestyle also helped me change as a person. I am healthier, in less pain and have a lot more strength for my daily activities!

But probably one of my biggest achievements this year was the start of my hormone therapy on September 9th. It’ll be exactly four months in January with 5 injections in and great blood test results so far. I am happier than I ever was before in my life, and I am SO exited about every new change that’s happening to me! And I encourage everyone out there to do so as well. If you’re hiding something (or someone) inside yourself. Let it out and show it the world! You’re going to feel so much better ♥

And the comic? WELL… We’re almost done with chapter 3 (at least I hope so because I need a break XD). I hope you enjoyed the comic so far and I am endlessly thankful for your patience and bearing with pages that aren’t always SUPER exciting and all that…

I’m looking forward to start working on “Tale of two Hearts”. I hope you guys do, too! Let me know in the comments if you want.

Now the not so very great things… It started all in November, when one of our dogs (Tiago) got hit by a car when his was going for a walk with his older brother Leon and my father. It was one of the most devastating things I had to experience in my life because, when we arrived (my mother and I had to drive there since we were out with the horses) I just saw my father cry-screaming out in the field, searching for Tiago. He was gone completely, nowhere to be found. After bringing my father to the hospital to give him medication to relax and recover from the shock, we all searched for over five hours that day, trying to get as much help as we could, letting everyone around know. But we couldn’t find him. Most of us feared for the worst, until a special K9-Unit (searching party for dogs) told us to stop the search immediately and go home. They calmed us all down, saying that if a dog is hit by a car and in complete shock, they just run. They run until they come to their senses and start their search for home. So, to keep this short (it’s already a long text): Tiago found back home that night. He was wounded on his leg, but everything else was okay. We went to the vets, got him patched up, x-rayed and on pain medication. Today, Tiago is himself again (mostly) and we’re so thankful to still have him here.

Well… What else? Just two weeks later I had to say goodbye to my amazing therapist. He quit his job at the place where I always visited him and moved somewhere much farther away. I am scared to go this journey without him because thanks to him I was able to start it… But I will continue nonetheless because that’s what life is about: Continuing even though it gets scary sometimes.

After that, you guys also got notice about that, I caught one of the worst flus/colds/whatever that was, I had in my entire life. And what’s worse is that I even got misdiagnosed by a doctor which stretched my suffering even more. Now, three weeks later I’m still recovering. I honestly thought I was going to bite the dust in the first week, but thankfully I didn’t. I hope that I may recover completely the next few weeks and I also hope that doesn’t happen again…

Anyways, to sum things up (I know, I am always pestering you guys with long texts quq): Have a good start into the new year! I hope it gets better for you guys out there who haven’t had such an amazing year. And for those who had one: I hope it gets even better!

Enjoy the night with your loved ones and take care. ♥ 😊

Love Chad
