The image is of a four panel comic.
In the first panel we see a dragon sitting on a pile of treasure. A speech bubble pointing off panel reads, “Dragon, why do you have all this treasure?”
In the second panel we zoom in on the dragons face. He simply says “shiny”.
In the third panel we pan to the left and see that there is a crow standing next to the dragon on the treasure.
In the fourth panel we zoom in on the crows face. He says “hell yeah”.

CONTENT WARNING: Serious medical update, cancer. Announcement in attached images.
28 July, 2026

Okay so.

I have had some medical developments over the past several weeks, and now that I know more about the shape of them all I felt it was time to make an announcement to bring everyone up to speed.

I’ve had epilepsy for the last eight years, following an incident that was diagnosed at the time as a stroke. After recent re-imaging of my brain and analysis by a new team of neuroscientists in Oxford, It’s been determined that I have a brain tumour and that it’s what’s been causing the epilepsy all along rather than a stroke. It’s been quietly ticking away all this time, but on the plus side, growing only very slowly and my symptoms (regular mild seizures) have remained very stable over all this time.

I recently spent a few days in the hospital having surgery to conduct a biopsy in order to gather the best information possible on the tumour. The procedure all went to plan and I was discharged after a few days, but checked back in to my local hospital’s emergency department after a couple more due to an uptick in seizures owing to the surgery’s disturbance. They kept me for a couple days while they made some adjustments to my medications to help me through the recovery from the surgery, and that sorted things out just fine.Today I’ve just met with the specialist team in Oxford about the biopsy results and had the little blue patch covering the surgical wound removed (see attached drawing). Their analysis has determined that my tumour is an 'oligodendroglioma' in type (which is less common but easier to directly target with modern treatment, which is good) and grade 2 (which is the slowest growing of the options, which is also good). In a couple weeks there will be additional results from genetic biomarker testing that will guide my treatment pathway going forward, and I'll be referred to oncology which will take over my care and treatment. The expectation is that this will involve a mix of radiotherapy and chemotherapy, as the tumour is in too delicate an area of my brain for surgical removal to be an option, but the prognosis is good. Essentially, this will be treated more like an ongoing chronic condition than like a cancer in the traditional sense, and an 'expected lifespan' prognosis isn't appropriate or relevant. My health is good and treatment will mainly focus on reducing the tumour's growth which is already quite slow, and managing my seizures. For this type of tumour it sounds like the chemo approaches are quite refined and targeted, and always improving with new research.

I fully appreciate that all of this must sound rather scary and big. And it is, in its way. But with the biopsy results today, the news has been pretty much the best case scenario possible. I am about as pleased and relieved as it's possible to be with the news, so I hope that you can join me in taking heart from this despite the frightening elements of it all, my dear friends. :)A cute drawing of a plushie version of the blue dragon Doran, featuring a sewn-on patch on the side of his head to represent the covering of the surgical wound from his recent brain biopsy. A few yellow stars are emanating from the patch, representing some slightly dazed and overwhelmed feelings from it all.
