i'm sitting in a hospital room at kaiser right now. i came back from my trip to find out that my mother-in-law was diagnosed with metastatic lymphoma. there are tumors everywhere. she's 89 and weighs 80 pounds. been losing weight for the last year. now we know why. she's in pretty bad shape. it was the kidney failure that got her sick last week. she's been seeing her doctor on a regular basis, but this was missed. joy's dad is 94 and he's in bad shape as well. he had a subdural bleed after a fall 4 years ago and has required constant care ever since.
anyway, i'm going to be stepping back from reel repair for a while. meet the new team! go ahead and contact anyone of these three guys for repair.

thanks, guys. i've been taking the evening/swing shift here at the hospital. she sleeps alot right now. i think they are going to do an excision biopsy tomorrow, but both my wife and her sister have to talk it over with the doctor. right now i am playing the role of the supportive husband and covering all the details and gofer jobs that need to be done. there are alot!
I'm certain I speak for everyone when I say if their is anything we can do to help, just say the word.
Ron
Alan, so, so sorry to hear the news.
Be with your family. They need you.
The new one you've created here is thinking of you and yours.
When it's right, we'll see you back here again. Till then, know we are thinking of, and praying for you.
Mate, My wife and I are so sorry to hear the news about your family. Our thoughts are with you and yours.
May the Gods smile on all of you.
i still have to finish up e-mail and pm's, but i just caught up on all the posts. by looking at the responses to all the questions that have been asked, all of you have been a tremendous amount of help. it's been very humbling to see. i'm betting that nowhere else on the net will you see so many people pull together and help on such a large scale.
So sorry to hear Alan... :(
As far as the New Team.
Congratulations on the Demotion/Promotion ~ Whichever applies!!
Just kidding, Congrats guys...
My thoughts are with you and your family at this difficult time!
Steve.
Sorry for your troubles Alan.

You are so right - what you're doing is a full time job even when you're not at her bedside.
Take a big step back, friend, and my thoughts are with you.
Jim and Jonathon, thanks for stepping in.
Rob
Take care of family, your crew can take care of the reels.
