Ok guys, I'm in need of a little bit of advice. So, one of the reasons I started camming is because I've been having some really bad health issues that make it flat out impossible for me to hold down a regular job. I was rocking along, doing great, camming happily, and then BAM! Got hit really hard by a flare-up and have pretty much spent the last month curled up in my apartment taking care of myself and trying to get my body back to balance. Things are on an upswing now and I'm getting ready to go back to work, but I have /no/ idea how to explain what's going on to my regulars (several of whom emailed me to figure out why I disappeared, but I never got back to them because of having no idea what to say and no energy to figure something out). I'm really stressed over this for a variety of reasons, ranging from not wanting to share all the personal details of why my body's all broken (both 'cause it's nobody else's business and because I kinda feel it hurts the image of happy, chill nerd girl I try to portray) all the way to being worried that my customers will think it's fishing for sympathy and stuff and not wanting to deal with that sort of response. Does anyone have any advice for how to explain random absences like this? I know it's gonna happen on an irregular basis (though hopefully not for this long anytime soon!) and it's seriously stressful to not be able to keep a schedule with reliability and not have any idea how to explain that without getting much more into my personal life than I'd like to with customers.
Thanks much folks!

Reading through all yall's stuff has definitely given me a better handle on how to say it and has given me more confidence in not talking about what I don't need to talk about! ^.^ As always, yall super rock.
