NOTES FROM A SICKBED GN

In 2009¸ Tessa Brunton experienced the first symptoms of myalgic encephalomyelitis (also known as chronic fatigue syndrome). She spent much of the next eight years unwell¸ in a medical holding pattern¸ housebound and often alone. In 2017¸ she found a strategy that helped reduce her symptoms¸ and soon began creating the first installments of a graphic memoir. Notes from a Sickbed collects previously released and brand-new¸ unseen comics that recall her experiences with honesty¸ a pointed wit¸ and a lively visual imagination.
