KhorasForum

I had some technical problems with the forum and had to do some updates and patches. It got a bit tricky and the forum was down for several days, but it looks like everything is working again and we are back online.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

I'll be thinking of you and wishing you the best.

Do jump on the forum here and let us know you're ok afterwards (when you can). We'll be waiting for you.

All the best,

David

Here we go folks,

Goodmorning everyone,

If you are the praying type, do that and thanks. if you are positive thoughts do that, thanks.

I'll be in bed by 7pm so I can try and get a few hrs in. I want to be clear and strong when I go under the knife.

Sorry for your losses, both of you. My parents have been ailing a bit as well, and I know it's devastating when the worst arrives. Good luck with your surgery, as well.

Sid6.7,

I'm so sorry to hear about all of your troubles. My goodness, you certainly have had a rough year. My condolences on losing your mom. I also recently lost a parent, my dad, a little over a year ago. He was also 85. It's tough to lose a parent at any age. You have my sympathies. I'm glad your last day with her was a good one.

I hope your October heart surgery goes well and that you are able to recover quickly. Take care of yourself. I'm also in Washington. Let me know if there's anything I can do to help.

David
