And then it was 2021

Welcome to 2021! Hope you all enjoyed the recent holidays. I haven’t posted in a while, so let’s get some MangAI and health news going.

I have been (very slowly) working on a MangAI update based on user feedback. Just little stuff since my health rarely lets me program. Also the licensing server was having some issues, but I think I fixed those bits of code.

I finally got disability status after over a year and half of applying (and appealing, and appealing again). It was not an easy process. I will write up a full article once all the dust has settled.

As for my current health, nothing has improved. Every day is a challenge. I imagine a lot of you experienced a new sense of isolation in 2020 with quarantines keeping you at home more. With me mostly in bed all day anyway, 2020 didn’t feel all that different to me.

I hope things get better for everyone this year :)

    Andrew, how have you been these past few years? I do not know if you are still active here anymore, but can provide an update on your current health status? I believe we have spoken before about this and I would really like to know as I am having very similar issues related to yours regarding balance and visual changes.

      Hi! Sorry I missed your comment until now. It was lost in a sea of spam.

      My health remains the same with constant balance and vision issues. No doctor has been able to diagnosis it or find a working treatment. I’ll post a story on this site if I find something out.

    @Christopher Mendez
    I am having similar issues too and am looking for answers. Can you let me know if you have been given any answers?

      Another comment hidden among the spam. Sorry it took so long to approve your reply.

      I don’t know where else to go after visiting neuro-otologists, ENTs, eye specialists, and any other doctor that would see me. None of the tests have shown anything wrong with me.

      I will let you know if I ever get an answer. Good luck in your search.
