  • 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.

Prayers Requested

I'm actually writing this on my wife's behalf.

Last week Tuesday her Grandmother was admitted to the hospital for what was believed to be pneumonia. Well, by Thursday they had her hooked up to a ventilator and in the ICU. Apparently the pulmonary fibrosis she was diagnosed with in February was very aggressive and had started shutting off vessels in the lungs.

Yesterday afternoon, after her uncle (an Army doc of 20 years) confirmed the diagnosis and situation with the treating doctor, the decision was made to remove the ventilator. Her grandmother passed at around 3:30 yesterday afternoon.

It's been a very rough week for her, and she is now working to help her mom make funeral arrangements. Looks like this memorial day will not exactly be the most funfilled.

Like others above, sorry for the lose of a family patriarch. I will be visiting my Grandmother and Grandfather in Florida next week. As I get older, I appreciate family more and more. Thanks for reminding us how important this should be.

I'm so sorry for your loss. I just got to see my grandmother last week on a quick visit. I dread the day she passes...you and your family are in our thoughts.
