Been following you for so long. Love your art. Lucky to have gotten my hands on your 2023 desk calendar, upcycling it by drawing on the back of the months gone by hehe. You’re an inspiration woman!!!! Kill it! And get well soonest 🫶

🥹 thank you!!! I am so glad you’re upcyling it haha. I use my leftover calendars as sketch books and paint all over the flip side. Sending you a big hug.

I hope the 'Hatellas' are healing and pain is leaving :P

I am just glad you found and have this amazing family, friends and US (lildramagirls) right here. Whatever happens, i read somewhere recently, the act of understanding we are in shit and then accepting it, and finding a way and your reason to move on from it is the the most human act but one that comes from within your soul that has seen you travel through so many lives and living the one you have so authentically that you`ll find a way ( I have also messed up the delivery of the message in 100 ways sooriiiii). It`s always on time, so you are never late, time might look like slipping away but is it really? Had mixed feelings reading about your months but closing note would be So glad you are healing and excited for your new plans. Like Harivansh Rai Bachchan said ~ Mann ka ho to accha, na ho toh usse bhi accha. Cheering for you & Sending you the warm hugs like coffee mug filled with coffee wali feeling! Love!

My therapist says: This is life. You can choose to live this life (through all its joy and pain) or survive it (neck deep in overthinking, anxiety and dread).

I tell her: It's so much easier to survive, than have the other shoe fall on you.

She asks: But does surviving make you happy?

*SIGH*

Thank you, Mounica, for sharing your stories. Your art is honest and kind. I hope you (we) believe that you (we) are the answers you (we) are looking for :) Sending you truckloads of good wishes and super healing powers.

Hey 👋

Love your comics and merch.

My mom (59) got knee surgery last year in May and her doctors told exactly what your doctors told you. I don’t know why doctors are no longer truthful about recovery times. Maybe it’s coz no one wants to hear that it’s gonna be painful and recovery is going to be slow and steady. Anyways I just posted to let you know that based on my moms experience, even though it seems painful now you are gonna recover. It may take 3 months, or 6 or maybe even more, everybody’s body is different. My mom would get very disheartened and feel that there is something wrong with her for not recovering from the surgery sooner. I hope you don’t feel like that.

Just give your body time to heal and rest. And when you open your shop again, I am sure your awesome work will bring you customers again.
