What's more metal than #chemo induced numbness and pain? That's metal AF. . . . . #cancercomics #comicsaboutcancer #cartooning #cartoonistsoninstagram #humor #chemotherapy #metal #digitalart #digitalcomics #cartoons #singlepanelcomic #cancertreatment https://www.instagram.com/p/B3z6NmDgYjO/?igshid=1apvchskdl1d0

[Excerpt] While nothing new, I struggle with finding the balance between self care post-cancer and my responsibility to help out (the world is on 🔥, after all...)

People said that I’m the most difficult sign to understand in zodiac :(

Like EVERYTIME I see my doctor, or a nurse, it anyone, in any space in the oncology office, people start shouting about my poop. Chemo messes with everything, including that. So I get it, but can we discuss this privately? No? Ok, how about at half volume because everyone is listening and oh gawd why? . . . . #chemotherapy #cancercomics #comicsaboutcancer #cartooning #cartoonistsoninstagram #nurses #reallifecomics #humor https://www.instagram.com/p/B3nEdW2AOla/?igshid=sz75nxy8gh63

I know what this means, and I appreciate it, but also, what the hell does this mean? 😂 . . . . #cancercomics #comicsaboutcancer #comicsaboutmylife #comicsoninstagram #cartooning #cartoonistsoninstagram #reallifecomics https://www.instagram.com/p/B3m0GLAgWhZ/?igshid=igjq2uczhjfe

4 cycles in and I'm shedding like a cat in the middle of a heat wave. When it started, I buzzed everything down to super short. I'm glad I did because watching my full length fall out left and right would be a lot. Now it's like a game. How much will fall out today, Bob?! (Answer: a lot) I jokingly suggested I could sneeze myself bald, it's coming out so easily. It was amusing enough to me that I decided to make this comic about it.

[Excerpt] Another great layout from @makeshiftlove - this one with a reflection (and no answers) on what it means to identify as having a disability.

[Excerpt] I don't spend a lot of time in the comic on my good experiences with doctors. This was deliberate - I didn't want to glorify them any more than society already does. But that's not to say I didn't have moments of real appreciation for the level of care I was receiving. Like when one of my doctors emailed me in the middle of the night to say she'd thought of a solution to one of the tough decisions I had to make. Next level care, am I right??

[Excerpt] Reminiscing about group therapy because, sure, cancer may connect us, but there's a lot more that separates us...

t's been a big year for us at Kimiko Does Cancer:

- we drafted the entire 91-page story

- @makeshiftlove inked(!) chapter 1

- we gave our first ever presentation on KDC at a conference in Sweden (and ate all the pastries)

- we submitted a draft to a publisher

- and one more exciting development we can't yet share!

Thanks to all of you for supporting, sharing and inspiring us! 🤗🎉🍡

[Excerpt] So, uh, these are all my cancer-related health care providers. I beat my 95-year-old Obaachan...

(And yes, that's their actual racial make-up 😒.)

[process] kimiko does short-sleeved collared shirts 😛 fun fact: did you know? apart from 3 outfits, kt doesn't repeat shirts throughout the #comic? i'm having way too much fun thinking of shirt #patterns and #designs not to have fun with #queerstyle throughout the book. depending on how you look at it, there's either so much or only so much you can do playing around with a person's #style. even a basic short sleeved collared shirt offers a lot of possibility. you should see the t-shirts. heheheheheheheheeee 😉 ~kg
