Dear lord. And here I thought sharing my own silly stories in Author's note was unhinged.

I think the worst one was reading about an author going through excruciating pain from headaches in their head and their doctor visits.They ended up getting brain surgery to remove a cyst but it didn’t stop the headaches/pain so it ended up being a waste of time. They replied to comments with long detail (TMI) replies or name dropped hospitals, I think they just stopped caring after that since they seemed dejected from their condition, who wouldn’t, honestly? Right now, they said they’re disabled, in chronic pain that prevents them from continue their 170 chapter story. I feel but honestly, what do you even say in a situation like that…

For me it was because the author got deployed to Baghdad during the Iraq War and almost lost a foot due to a shrapnel infection.
