I haven't been around.

Postby caz223 » Wed Mar 04, 2009 10:24 pm

I have been spending time with my family.
I just participated in a funeral. It was my mom.
She died from the final stages of multiple myeloma.
It's a really painful, ugly cancer that I wouldn't wish on anyone.
I have been extremely busy, and my family duties have just gone up by 1000%, as my dad is not taking this well.
I hope this never happens to anyone, and I don't know when I'll have time to get my rigs fired up again.
Please carry the flag for me until I get back.

My deepest and sincere condolences to you and your family, that's very sad news... :(

Again it furthers my commitment to try and help the task of science against terrible diseases like this, both for folding and also for other charitable causes.

Take as long as you want fella, I'm sure many of us here will try and keep up the good work and squeeze out some extra cycles.

Kind regards,

Sorry to hear that, caz! :cry:

Lost my mom to cancer 35 years ago. Just got back from my grandmother's funeral Sunday night.

It can be tough - hang in there! :)
