First, thanks for the thoughts and prayers. I only have a few minutes tonight but promise I will catch up on all the PM's tomorrow night.

The last 2 weeks have been very trying. Lots of little stuff that all added up to a huge headache and early in the week my kids grandfather, (Ex-Wife's father) fell on the ice in a parking lot. He hit his head really hard and screwed up his shoulder. He was in ICU for 3 days with head trauma and what they believed was bleeding on the brain. There is some good news though. The last 3 scans came back OK so they finally released him and sent him home from the hospital. He has a long road to fully recover, his shoulder is really bad and there is some concern about dementia and Alzheimer's disease. Not necessarily related to the fall, but it is coming out he is forgetting stuff, getting lost and so forth. The big hit on the head is a concern. He is a very big part of who I am and the man my son has become. We have remained close even after the divorce and he is a stubborn, highly motivated and independent person and this may prove to be very difficult for him.

Thanks again,
Chuck
