Quick heads up of what's been going on (Patreon)
Content
Hey guys!
I just wanted to say how sorry we are for having been gone these past few weeks D: it happens too often and it always angers us when we see days and weeks go by without any uploads...I felt we needed to tell you guys what's been going on and why we're always so inconsistent with our releases.
So basically, here's what's happening. One of the consequences of my cancer (that still affects me today) is that my spleen has grown more than 3 times its size, because my blood is pooling in it. The doctors have me go in and do tests once in a while to try to figure out what's going on and why my spleen keeps getting bigger instead of smaller, now that the cancer is gone.
With my blood being kept in my spleen, I'm stuck with constant anemia and, therefore, intense fatigue. Sometimes I manage to control it and pour my energy into the work (and we have a month of regular uploads) and sometimes I crash and barely manage to stay awake a full day (which makes recording videos difficult)
We try to balance work with video recording and when we're in top shape, we manage, but when I crash, I'm mentally and physically too exhausted to do much and I end up pushing back recordings (I tell myself I'll catch up tomorrow, but then, weeks go by and it sucks D:)
So in the past few weeks, I've been crashing. I've been sleeping a lot more, but feeling more tired and so we haven't been able to record. It pisses me off that we don't manage to stay consistent with the videos, but I love the channel and I love reacting, so I'm doing my best to change things in my life so that this condition isn't too hard on me and doesn't affect me in the long run.
I'm sorry, guys, about our lack of uploads and for those of you waiting for shows that have been on break forever, we're not forgetting about you (what happens is when we are late with recordings and we manage to get a good day, we focus on the shows that take less time to record so we can do more episodes). You guys deserve to know the behind the scenes of this and even though I hate giving excuses, I felt I needed to explain myself and not just disappear without a word, only to come back like nothing happened.
For those of you who have stuck with us all this time and through all this uncertainty, thank you so much, we love you guys and your support means a lot to us. 🥰 For those who, understandably, choose not to continue with us, we totally get it and love you just the same :) we're working hard and doing our best to make this channel work for all of you and hopefully, things can settle when it comes down to the schedule :/
Thanks guys, Happy (late) Easter!
