Salutations friends.
The following is all of Dondi's posts from his deviantART page from the past two years. To read, start with the first post beneath this, which was the first of his journal entries and continue through to the end. Anyone who knows Dondi should know this is going to be a prolific read. From the moment he knew, he wanted to document and bring us along on his journey, and he definitely does so here.
It is long, the following pages of material that he produced, and challenging for anyone and everyone near and dear to him. Between the somber posts of his struggles, however, is the pure and golden soul that we all know and love. I hope you take the time to follow his posts and relive the challenging journey he had up to the very end.
To Dondi, wherever you are, rest in peace my friend. May the stars guide your next journey.

Small Notation
Salutations.
I've not much to say in this particular journal...for about a month now, I've been feeling "off" physically.
It's definitely time for another trip to the doctor.
Again, this is just a short update of such. I do hope that all of you are well, and I'll update with more later on. Take care.

Brief Break
Hi!
I will be taking a brief break from things. I may still be around, slowly and steadily, but it won't be until the weekend that I may be fully "active" as I often am. I wish you all the best!
Peace!

Doc Tour
Salutations.
In regards to my previous journals, I'll explain a little of what's going on.
Ever since the end of June, I've been having stomach issues. It got to where, after various events, I finally got to see a doctor. They did some tests, didn't fully find out what was wrong, but they did put me on meds that really helped. Sadly, they only helped for the time that I was taking them.
This week, I went back and got checked out and was given a few more options. I went to the hospital again, however, and finally got some other treatment and a possible diagnosis...one that will have to be confirmed once I see a "specialist" on the 16th. Currently, I'm feeling pretty fine. I'm on medication, I'll see another doctor soon, and I'll finally get definite answers to my problems.
My apologies if this isn't too specific for some of you. In honesty, I don't feel comfortable sharing all of the details with what's going on. Nevertheless, I thank you all for your caring and sharing. Keep on keepin' on, and I'll make sure to do my best to do the very same!

Still Doc Touring
Salutations.
I've not too much to report at the moment. I did my bit of an exam today at the doctor (or had it done to me, to better say). I go back next Tuesday to finally get an assessment on things. Until then, I'll continue my meds and just take it easy for a bit.
My thanks to those who took the time to stop by and wish me well. Considering how I've been feeling as of late, it's nice to see so many by my side.
Take care, everyone, and I wish you all the very best!

Knowledge of Signal Patterns
Salutations.
After having read the journal of
, I thought I'd give this personality quiz a try. This isn't some sort of "tagging" meme or anything; I was just curious and, given the time of this particular post, wanted to do something for a bit.
My results:
Understanding
You are willing to take the time to find out what's going on with other people, especially if they're in distress. You're a good listener, you don't criticize, and you offer unbiased, respectful, honest advice when it's requested. With a high score on the "understanding" trait, it is likely that you are enthusiastic about charitable work, helping others, and making the world a better place.
You don't feel the need to impose your standards on others or say things that, even though true, cause pain.
Sympathetic
You have a knack for knowing what's going on in the hearts and minds of those around you, without their having to tell you explicitly. People tend to turn to you with their problems because they know you care, and that you will likely offer good advice and a helping hand.
You do not feel that people with sad stories are just looking for attention, or have brought their problems upon themselves.
Curious
You like to get to the bottom of things. You're not content knowing what someone did; you want to know why they did it.
You don't simply take things as they are and move on; you're not content skimming along on the surface; you don't feel you're wasting time by digging for the meaning of things.
Warm
You have a genuine interest in other people. You're a natural host, and are always thinking about how you can increase the happiness of those around you. When friends have problems or are in trouble, you're usually the first person they turn to for aid and comfort. Scoring high on the "warm" trait suggests that you are among those who enjoy domestic activities — doing things around the house — and are enthusiastic about charitable work, helping others, and making the world a better place.
You don't always say exactly what you're thinking; you don't like the idea of causing anyone pain because of your criticism.
Empathetic
You are in touch with your own feelings, which helps put you in touch with the feelings of others.
You don't buy the logic that your happiness comes ahead of everyone else's because unless you're happy you're incapable of making anyone else happy.
Calm
You rarely become irritated, generally accept people as they are, take things as they come, and feel relaxed in most situations.
You do not let a minor annoyance escalate to a confrontation. You don't regularly snap at those around you or fly off the handle with little provocation.
Aesthetic
You appreciate art, beauty, and design; you know that they are not superficial but absolutely crucial to living the good life. You have good taste, and you're proud of it. Those with a high score on the "aesthetic" trait are often employed in literary or artistic professions, enjoy domestic activities — doing things around the house — and are enthusiastic about the arts, reading, and travel.
You don't think it's pretentious to be moved by art and beauty. You're not one of those who believe it doesn't matter what something looks like as long as it does its job.
Original
You are constantly coming up with new ideas. For you, the world as it exists is just a jumping-off place; what's going on inside your mind is often more interesting than what's going on outside.
You don't feel that the road to success is to be a realist and stick to the program; you never stop yourself from coming up with new ideas or telling the world what you're thinking about.
Upbeat
You enjoy being around others and others enjoy being around you. You have a "live and let live" attitude; because you know that no one's perfect, you are forgiving and happy to give the benefit of the doubt.
You don't feel the need to be controversial or express contrary opinions all the time. You see no reason to go around rubbing people the wrong way.
Introspective
You like your own company; you're a very interesting person. Tracking your own mental processes, knowing what you're thinking and why you do what you do, is important to you. Often, what's going on in your mind is more compelling than what's going on outside. For the most part, those with a high score on the "introspective" trait enjoy reading, taking long walks, learning new things, and other solitary activities.
You are not someone who is constantly looking to be among a group of friends; you never feel bored when you are by yourself.
I found this to be a pretty interesting view into things. For anyone interested, here's the link again:

More Medical Details
Hi.
I'm tired...that's the main thing right now. I don't feel like explaining things but, at this point, I don't want to leave things in the dark for too much longer.
Here are a few words you should research:
Hematuria
Cystoscopy
Foley Catheter
I'll probably explain more later but, for now...I'm just tired. In good spirits, but tired.
Take care all.
Peace.
