Artemis DevLog CH6 (Patreon)

Hey everyone,

just a quick check in. This week was mostly code work, trying to simplify things for future workflow. Also render dumps into the code. That wraps it up for things Artemis related from last week.

Below will just be a personal update.

Firstly. Thank you everyone for the support. I took a break from my social medias to just focus on mom and family. She's still in the hospital and was transferred to ICU. She had the necessary procedures done and is conscious, however she's having a difficult time getting the breathing tube removed. The hospital has strict visitation for patients in the ICU, so my new office is in the hospital's cafeteria where I'll be working on Artemis while I wait on updates about my mom. 

On that note, there's something I've been wanting to say to you guys for a while. This year, you guys have been a major blessing to my mom. She's been battling stage IV breast cancer since 2019 and this year has been very difficult for her. But because of you guys, you've allowed me the ability to be present to take her to her appointments (she became wheelchair bound in March), be here for her to administer her medications, fight doctors who would take advantage of someone not strong enough to fight for themselves. Because of you guys I don't have a boss to say I have to take X day off or have PTO to worry about. I just pack my laptop and take my mom to her appointments. I even relocated back to mom's home earlier this year and worked there while being able to monitor and care for my mom.

So I can't thank you guys enough for blessing me with this opportunity to be a developer and having the freedom to work this project wherever. Thank you guys for allowing me the freedom to schedule mom's appointments as early as possible without thinking twice about my own schedule. And thank you guys for allowing me the freedom to just be available for my mom this year.

That's about all I have to share from last week. This week, I'll be working on more code for CH6 and custom artwork for Artemis tiers.

Again, thank you all so very much for your support.
