I have not been posting on the site lately as my wife was diognosed with cancer in late January and past away on the 9th of April.
I had to than go to the other side of Australia where my son's wife who has had cancer for six years past away on 23rd of April.
I hope I will be back posting soon.
Only time will tell.

My post disappeared and I can't remember what I said.

So sorry to hear of the passing of your wife and daughter-in-law. I recall you telling me your wife was fighting cancer so this was not a total surprise. If there's anything I can do to help ease your mind, just speak up. At a time like this, friends and family are our crutch.
