So, everything about this is fantastic. I remember finding the original viral comic years ago (like so many others). It is fantastic to find more of Karen's great story here, be able to pay the artist, and know that some portion of this is helping some of the real-world kids like Karen out there.
I hope others find this and also buy it. The story is wonderful (where it needs to be) and sad (because that is reality) in places too.
Great job and the best $5 (with additional tip) I have spent on Itch.io ever.
