This month has been a difficult one. Early in the month I started having issues with my right shoulder. Extreme pain shooting down my arm and numbness in my hand (I'm right handed) has made holding a pen/pencil and drawing difficult. Then my other shoulder, my left, started hurting worse. I've been to two doctors so far, and have made specialist appointments. I've been Xrayed and blood tested, and all that jazz, going back to the doc again this week, although I do have a neurologist appointment. Its not till Feb though.

Pain management for this issue still escapes me. I've had to take things day by day, not just for Shifters, but for my actual day job as well. This might not seem like much, but I've had to redraw a lot because of shaky hands, or just being unable to focus through pain. I'm hoping this next visit to the doctor will see better results on the pain management front so I can finish this issue up before the new year. 

I didn't quite make my goal tonight as my shoulder just wouldn't let me work without frequent breaks.  But here's the progress so far.  I wanted to post /something/ here, for you guys who've been awesome in supporting me over the year, even though its been tough.

Good news is that Che has said she'll have the time to color the pages that have been released so far here on Patron this month, so expect to see the full colors on those hopefully before the new year.
