I don't think I've mentioned this before, so now's as good a time as any. The start of this series coincided pretty well with a really rough time for me - mom was diagnosed with cancer in the kidney region, and I was alone for a week while she was in the hospital getting poked at to figure out what they're gonna have to do going forward. Needless to say, but high stress situation, and I wasn't coping well.

This series helped. It has the right balance of cute, action, and depth of feeling to keep one's attention, and to make one think, and both of those are things I sorely needed. I'm sad to see it end, but knowing you, this is just the beginning - and I look forward to seeing where things go from here. To the point though, I wanted to say thank you. Even if you didn't know it, you helped me through a tough time, and this is far from the first time.

Your work matters. Be proud of it (though I've no doubt you already are).
