My absence, please be patient

[ChasDen]

Not sure where to put this, but I have a lot of people I am corresponding with about trays I'm building and general banter. Its been a rough few days and we have a family member in the hospital. Trucks breaking down, a dishwasher flooding the kitchen and well, I just need a few days to take care of family and catch my breath.

I'm not going anywhere,
I'm not avoiding you if I haven't responded,
I just need to catch my breath.

Be patient,
I'll be back in a few days,

Sincerely,
Chuck

How about if we're not patient - but keep you in our prayers instead?

Yeah, that'll work. Consider it to be done as such.

Peace of the Lord be with you.

First, thanks for the thoughts and prayers. I only have a few minutes tonight but promise I will catch up on all the PM's tomorrow night.

The last 2 weeks have been very trying. Lots of little stuff that all added up to a huge headache and early in the week my kids grandfather, (Ex-Wife's father) fell on the ice in a parking lot. He hit his head really hard and screwed up his shoulder. He was in ICU for 3 days with head trauma and what they believed was bleeding on the brain. There is some good news though. The last 3 scans came back OK so they finally released him and sent him home from the hospital. He has a long road to fully recover, his shoulder is really bad and there is some concern about dementia and Alzheimer's disease. Not necessarily related to the fall, but it is coming out he is forgetting stuff, getting lost and so forth. The big hit on the head is a concern. He is a very big part of who I am and the man my son has become. We have remained close even after the divorce and he is a stubborn, highly motivated and independent person and this may prove to be very difficult for him.

Thanks again,
Chuck

Continued positive thoughts for you and the family Chas.
