#WTFWEDNESDAY - I'm turning 47 today! XD
Added 2020-08-26 16:48:47 +0000 UTCGood morning, my Beautiful Patrons.
Today, I turn 47! GOOD GRIEF…! WTFWEDNESDAY indeed! LOL!
I won’t bother to tell you how quickly time flies by, because, well, DUH! But I will say that it’s been a Hell of a year!
Obviously, the world sucks at this moment. There’s all the shit happening with COVID-19, not to mention all the racial tension and misery everywhere. It’s enough to make your brain explode on most given days.
On a personal note, and I haven’t shared this publicly because I’m a deeply private person who likes to keep his professional and personal lives as two separate things, my family has been struggling with my mother’s quickly progressing Alzheimer’s disease. She was diagnosed three years ago and her illness is progressing quickly. To say it’s been rough is an understatement.
Through the magic of pre-scheduled posts and hard work and preparation, I’ve been able to spend some time with my mother and father, helping them out as best I can, but traveling in times of COVID is complicated and, well, fucking scary! It doesn’t make things easy and they are ten hours away… but you gotta do what you gotta do in life.
My point is this: Turning 47 isn’t necessarily making me jump for joy, BUT, despite everything, my life is still has joy in it, and I’m determined to hold on to that joy! While I spend a lot of time feeling sad and frustrated that my mom is fading away, I do have my art and the happiness that continues to bring me. Throughout all of this, it has kept me sane and prevented me from sinking deep, way down DEEP into what could undoubtedly be a very dark, personal abyss.
I also have you guys to thank for that. After all, I create most of this art for you and your enjoyment, and your constant love and support has helped me in ways you couldn’t even begin to understand. I cherish you and I’m deeply grateful for your continued support and encouragement. Sure, I’ve been around the erotic art block a while now, but that doesn’t change the fact that I feel I’m always evolving in my art and craft. It’s a real blessing to be able to share this journey with all of you.
I’m not someone who’s at ease around emotions, and like I said, I’m pretty private. I find it easier to express myself through my art than I do through my words. But somehow, today, I just felt a need to share this with you Guys. Sometimes, especially in times of isolation, global and personal strife, it just feels good – and pretty liberating – to be able to say, “times are tough as Hell… but I’m still smiling!” And of course, my wonderful Hubby, Fraser is always so supportive and loving. He helps me out through this a great deal!
Anyway, I don’t wanna worry any of you. Honestly, I’m the pillar – I’m the one who stays strong, it’s what I do! It’s what I’ve always done. I’ll get through this and I know it won’t be easy going, but I’m determined not to sink through it all.
Thank you all so much for being here with me today on this 47th birthday… “47”, even though I still barely feel like I’m 20! LOL! I love you Guys to BITS, and I appreciate you all so very much.
We’ve had a crazy month together, and I’m pretty darn pleased that on this birthday, I get to post the final page of GAY FOR SLAY #2! Wow! And sharing it with you Guys is one HELL of a birthday present for me. That's coming up next!
Enjoy, my friends… And stay safe! We’ll get through this together. I love you!
Patrick XOXOXO

As you know, it's very, very hard to come to terms with this sort of illness in a loved on, but we have to do all we can to go on and to be strong for them. It's a challenge sometimes, but the support and love of your friends and family is always so helpful. Again, thank you so much for taking the time to write. It meant a lot to me and I wish you all the very best, my friend. I am so sorry you and your family experienced this sort of thing too. So much love to you and yours! XOXOX ❤️❤️❤️❤️

2020-08-26 18:49:55 +0000 UTCHappy Birthday. I'm sorry it's happening under such rough circumstances but thanks for everything. If bbn you need extra time off to be with your mother then you should make that a priority. Your fans would understand.

2020-08-26 18:36:51 +0000 UTCThanks for sharing all this. I know it must be hard for you. Glad to see you have support throughout all this. My heart goes out to you. Of course have the same covid crap here in NYC. Lost my mother 4 years ago. Dad suffered dementia for about 15 years before he passed about 13 years ago. Tough seeing my father fade away as well. He was so vital before. I got lucky with my parents. Soulmates truly. When I came out to them in 1980. I got the parents I always wanted. So supportive of me as I am. Wishing you the best birthday in the world. You are so talented and prolific. I look forward to all your posts here. Take care you sexy soul. Love, Danny

2020-08-26 17:07:44 +0000 UTCHAPPY BIRTHDAY PATRICK-SENSEI!! ❤️ Strange that just a year ago you turned 37? :o Sorry to hear about your mom. It's a horrible time too when we all have to take a risk just stepping out side. I know too that America struggles the hardest, despite what any orange cactus say. But I degress, I am too a very very extreme private person but I have seen your art evolve over the years and I can honestly say that I like all the styles and tryouts. Keep being the lovely person you are and I will keep love and support you, your art inspires my own. So happy birthday and well wishes to your hubby and family and friends. Love from Sweden 🇸🇪 ps. I read wrong I thought it read >>I turned 47" (as in inches) << 🤣😋🤭

2020-08-26 16:59:12 +0000 UTCHappy birthday, first off. Secondly, I can relate to the worry of aging parents. All I can offer is my adoration of your art. It is always beautiful and sexy and very erotic. Take care of you, and love those around you as long as you can. ❤❤❤❤
