  • BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE

    Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over time BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

It's been a bittersweet week

Hey man,

I'm very sorry for your loss. There have been a few ups and downs for you over the past 3-4 months, haven't there?

I'll be praying for you and your family. Please let me know if there is anything you need in the meantime or if you just need to talk. PM me if you need my cell number.

I am so sorry. It is so hard to deal with helping a loved one. I also lost my father a long while back to a slow and debilitating disease. It's very hard on the whole family. The one thing I can say though is that it is nice to know ahead of time so that family can get things right in relationships to prepare for these moments. It's crazy, I had a moment almost exactly like yours where you know something is wrong and you instantly snap into action. It's a mind boggling thing. Your father is resting in a much better place now where the physical world can no longer hurt him. It's a odd thing because it is sad to see a loved one go but in a way it is good to know the suffering has ended. I will smoke a cigar for you tonight and say a prayer.
