Little Fire Burning (Ch. 85: Till death do us part *23.Apr 16*)
Theraven:
I updated only 3 days ago :)
it takes some time to do the pics, so I only have time to do them in the wekend. I do however have another chapter almost finished - but it's good to have some backup if I'm busy during the weekend. The update will come a few days from now, maybe - so just have a little patience. I want the pictures to be good, not just some I've spent two minutes on each just to have something to post.

Must say, I didn't see muscular dystrophy coming... when you said swollen calves, I assumed heart problems (venous oedema). Go figure. You must do a lot of research into different illnesses for your stories (either that or you've had some very unlucky personal experiences with illness :sad4: ).
Theraven:
wiki and youtube are good to start with - but I always find more reliable sources afterwards :). I always try to make my stories as realistic as possible, so research is very important. I got a bit inspired for this story because a girl in my class last year had a documentary photo project about DMD - about three brothers where the two youngest have the disease. Also, I've put in a few personal experiences from the time when my own brother was sick. Not from DMD - but he also had a disease without a cure, and sadly the doctors did not find out what it was until several years later.
My two other stories are a bit personal too - especially MAF. I've lost so many people I loved, and that sometimes just makes you forget to think about the good memories instead of the bad ones.
it's always like that: good stories are those that you do a lot of research for - but the best ones are those where you actually know what you're talking about. Without everything that has happened around me in my life, I know that my stories would never have been anywhere near where they are now. And if you've ever heard that writing is good therapy - it's true! Since I get out most of my frustration and sadness in my stories, I feel happy most of the time otherwise - believe it or not :)

I'm sorry to hear about your brother. I always worry about asking personal questions, as I realise they can make people feel sad, so I'm sorry if I made you feel bad. I really like your stories though. Keep up the good work!
