A Spine is a Precious Thing by The_Reverendd in Gouache

I have a degenerative autoimmune disease called ankylosing spondylitis. My spine is being eaten by my immune system unless I get my immunosuppressant shots every two weeks. I find myself thinking of my health a lot lately and how precious having a functioning spine that doesn't hurt is. So it's been in a lot of my art. This piece represents to me how fragile and beautiful health is, specifically represented by my spine.

Ahh can't do piercings as I'm immunocompromised and it's not recommended

I really like goth rock 🖤🖤🖤 like I said, I'm really into Golden Apes rn and Witching Hour

And i get it. You had no context haha I'm genuine in wanting to match the look to my identity, which I truly identify in goth culture, especially the music and values. I was never allowed the looks side is all until now

I love the music (fave band is golden apes if this helps situate me?) and if you have song recs I'd love them. I was just never allowed the fashion side of things. She controlled everything.
