Out of the Blue

Apologies for the non-update here. In brief, my mom, who has been receiving treatment lately for her second recurrence (third incidence) of breast cancer had what is described as a "massive" stroke last night. We're off to see her in the hospital, but her prognosis has been described as grim.

I just wanted to fill you in, as I'm not sure when I'll be back at this point. Thanks for your understanding, and for any good thoughts or prayers that anyone can muster on the occasion.

Now here's something that makes me proud to be part of the gaming community. When we can put aside our differences, forget our flame wars, pull together and offer help, even in the smallest sense by offering a few thoughtful words to assist and support a fellow gamer, or brother to us in this sense, in their time of need.

Blue, my condolences and heartfelt wishes to you and your family.

To eveyone that has and will post; thanks for being the people you are.
best,

...I am sorry to hear that things have become worse sine we last talked via e-mail. As you already know, my mother was in the hospital...and still is. I think that makes four months now.

Unfortunately, she is in a very similar situation; there are no other real treatments for her and her health is progressively becoming worse more due to smaller issues or having a weak immune system rather than as a direct result of her cancer which is still only 2cm in size.

Last week, we were told to put our papers in order.

It is...it's ridiculous. It just is.

Anyway, I am experiencing something very similar and am always here for whatever. Keep the faith, be strong, and aim for the best. Most importantly, I hope that your mother is ok internally; that things are not as bad as would be expected from such scale of a stroke or that, if they are that bad, she really is not aware of it.

Sucks.

I won't perpetuate your false hope in regards to religion. Any god that does this to people isn't worth praying to. Might as well pray to OBL, he's killed less people than the judeo-christian god anyway.
