Hey everybody,

I just wanted to let you all know that my dad is very ill right now. He's in hospital a 2 hour drive away from me, so when I go visit him it means that I'll be away most of the day. I'm not likely to be around much for the next little while so I just wanted to let you know what's going on.

You just take care of yourself and your family. The board is under control.

Mr. Impatient

Sorry to hear that, Chris! I hope things get better soon. And, like has already been said... Take care of yourself and your family!

I'll try to come to the board a little more often, too.

Chris

My father died early this morning. I've got to take care of a few things at home, then I'll be going back down to the city. I'll be away for the next few days.

Selkie

I'm so sorry to hear that, sis. Please know that if you need me for anything, I'll always be here for you.

My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

Mr. Impatient

I don't know what to say. Just know that we are here for you.

Chris

Thanks everybody.

It's been a difficult time, but I know that my dad put up a fight and I can acknowlege that his time had come and that he's in a better place now.

Ms Carolyn

Chris, I am SO very, very sorry to read about your dad. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Chris

Thanks Carolyn.

I've been overwhelmed with the support I've received from my online friends.

You have my deepest sympathy Chris. I've been through it myself with my mother. It's difficult but with the love of the family around you you find the will to move on. You and your family are in my prayers.

Chris

Thanks PPD.
