I am afraid my arm is giving me more and more problems (RSI = mousearm (for people who know that better)). I am not only having pains with typing, but also while doing the dishes and cutting my sandwiches. This is for me a sign as to limit my computer work extremely. Since I have to do some for my job, I have to cutdown the spare time computing. I will log in perhaps one time per two days or so instead of 3 per day, thus I will be here, but a lot less active and surely on the other boards... I am sorry. I'll try and write quests and stuff, but merely on paper. Not coding... sorry , but I really have to think about my health

Well, all I can say is Good Luck.
I hope you'll get better soon and continue your work, as I became very interested in your mod.

Also, to further limiting your computerwork, consult some people at work, so that you can make your workplace a bit more friendly.

Hey, don't worry about it. No apologies needed for wanting/needing to take care of your own health. I myself have put my Mods on hold because of my health. It's absolutely fine.

Rust lekker uit, en werk aan je Mod wanneer je er zin in hebt.

Shit dude, that bites. Take as much time as you need man.

Best of luck, Deathsangel - get well soon!

Some though slow progress for my arm feels good today and felt good yesterday. Don't think that in a few weeks I am back to old speed for this is something which kind of sticks to you for a while. However, it does seem my therapy is helping...

It's good to know you're recovering, be it slowly.

It's good to know you're recovering, be it slowly.

Just struck me that I never thanked you for this post. Thanks.

Have been working on Ariena a bit too much, for arm is hurting, but she is nearly finished. Keryvian is checking a file in order for it to be able to traify. After that it is testing time as stated in the progress report.

I am almost cured of my arm! Working every day again on the mod.

Unfortunate news for me is that I may perhaps never run anymore. I have very flexible joints, but that gives stress to my muscle. Now the region around my hip has got infected. It could either be the muscle tissue itself, which is just annoying, or the protective layer of slime (don't know how to say this clearly in english) between the muscle and the bone. If that is it I need to be 'fixed' so to speak. At the moment I can't walk without the medication

From one problem into another... perhaps god does not wish me to finish this? I rather think it is nice to be able to roleplay and to let aggresion out on the computer, but perhaps he thinks it should be none at all...

Don't worry I won't stop, I am just... how do you say? Letting my mind wonder freely?

Anyway thank you all for the support. Support keeps one motivated to mod

Oh, just in case people are wondering why I won't be here from around next week or so. It is because the Introduction Days (which took me together with 5 others a year to organise) are drawning very close. I won't mod for 2 a 3 weeks. I am not yet sure, if Ariena will be ready jsut prior to that (which I said initially) or that she will have to come after that... keep your fingers crossed I find the spirit to mod and it goes well or else I am afraid there will be (almost usual for me in the modding world) a bit of a delay, but now more because of RL then a wrong assumption in the workload.

[Deathsangel]

Uh... whoops. To flexible joints equals muscle infection equals pain and inability to bike and walk or stand, for that matter. I need to be at home, so perhaps I will mod a bit. That is perhaps the good part of this stroke of bad luck. (foto was taken in the room of my corridor mate, another one is on the far left)

Ladies and gentleman, thouhg not sure exactly what it is for 90% sure it is my nerve system... they are thinking along the lines of a hernia... I don't know what is going to happen, but it seems some strange force works against this mod... I don't know when I am on again. Though I keep putting down thoughts and writing dialogue whenever I feel like it, though understandably this might be a bit less then normal.

[Aion]

Hernia? At your age? Yeesh....that sucks.

[Deathsangel]

Ouch, Guido...

I knew you wouldn't be able to work for the CAID for a while, but this sounds even more serious!
You gonna be ok?

~Nico

For all that are thinking... what?! CAID = work. And to be honest Nico... I have no clue. I can't sit, stand, lie down, walk or bike without pain... tommorow I am going to the neurologic expert (it has a more fancy name, but I am afraid I mess up the translation)

[Deathsangel]

Well I am in a wheelchair right now... so project is definetly slowed down. Don't want to talk much. I need to clear my thoughts. Even my trip to my girlfriend in australia is at stake

[edit] Oh uh sorry. The conclusion was indeed a hernia. I am scheduled for a MRI scan to see what can be done and where the problem exactly is.

Sorry to hear all this. Hope the doctors can get you better soon.

[Deathsangel]

Due to a medication problem I got I am now at home, as for the diagnose it has been reset: They are thinking along the line of the syndrom of Scheuermann. I won't be out of the wheelchair for quite some time...

[Kania]

Bhaal take this MOD, no one cares, it's just you, whom we care - Angel, be with us and get better! (I hope I've said what I was meaning, excuse my poor English)
