An explanation and apology

hey bill, no worries on the prayers, I’m not a believer myself but I appreciate the sentiment from others, your right about bury being on the doorstep too I’m up there more than you can imagine with work, heck I was in whitefield at half five this morning lol.

Djozz, once funds are settled I may just do another giveaway, I don’t even want to talk about what’s going out in the next month, I could buy a few deft x’s though for the same cash……I’m not flush with cash by any stretch of the imagination, that’s for sure, but a giveaway is not unlikely to happen for whatever reason.

I am truly sorry to hear that. I wish you and your’s the best and my prayers go out to you and your family.

Graham, you are in my prayers. My pastor went thru the same. And I’m undergoing some issues myself. Here’s an excerpt from the prayer of serenity for you pls :
“God grant me the serenity
to accept the things I cannot change;
courage to change the things I can;
and wisdom to know the difference.

Living one day at a time;
Enjoying one moment at a time;
Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace.”

I wish that all good things that are in the world, may happen to you.

Sorry to hear the news, Graham. I hope everything works out.

Best wishes to you and your family.

thanks guy’s. orion, that’s a touching quote I’m familiar with, our current predicament is, we go with the amnio, its a one in a hundred chance it makes things worse, we don’t do it, we just don’t know.

Every step is steeped in soul searching over which is the right path to take.

As I say, every day, every step, one step at a time, that’s all we can do.

Having you guys here at my back though even in spirit is a big help, so thanks all, thanks for being there and I seriously hope that us takong the hit means you guys don’t have too, I wouldn’t wish this predicament on anyone.

You know my feelings gords for you and your family. Your right. Look at the big picture and break it down into little pictures and you will find your first step. All the best and cuddles all round.

MrsDNF, I might just collect those cuddles in person one day so be wary……

I know your feelings and they are much appreciated, you just can’t credit the boost that distant friends can give. :beer:

Terrible news man, sorry that such an awful situation has come upon you and your family. My thoughts and prayers are with you. I hope things get much better for you soon.

I wish you and your family the best Gords, I truly do!
Maybe I have not read enough posts, but I have not noticed any grumpiness, and if so. It happens. Your presence here is highly appreciated, grumpy or happy. :slight_smile:

Please know that I’ve really enjoyed reading your posts here and your generous contributions here are well recognized. Your sharp sense of humor would make it difficult to take even ‘grumpy’ posts to heart, and I’m sure others feel the same. I truly sympathize with what you and Mrs. Gords are going through. I do not believe in an invisible man in the sky who either sends us good or bad fortune, nor intervenes to reverse such, but I will have you and your family in my thoughts and do wish for a smooth transition back to normalcy for you and your household.

Very sorry about that Gords. I sincerely hope all goes well. However, I must say that I haven’t noticed any deviation from the usual in your posts. :slight_smile:

Life has it’s ways of reminding us that we are never really in the Drivers Seat, you can’t Predict nor Control everything it will throw at you. I hope all goes as well as it can for You and Your Family at this difficult time. I can relate to how you must feel, all you can do is try to remain strong for your Family and Hope for the Best Outcome (though the best outcome may not always be an easy Pill to swallow) and Vent when you get the Chance. Take Care.

No matter the path you take it will be the the right one, because this decision is all you and your wife’s own. Let no one try to convince you otherwise.

Illuminatee , could it be that you were stirred to post and join us here by the news of Gord's plight ? If so , I like you already . I agree with all that you said and the way you said it . Welcome to the forum .

Gords , I know we don't say it enough , but we love you man .

Gords, any such fits of ill humour were likely well earned by the recipient - the couple I noticed certainly were! As for the rest, just know that we'll be here, no matter what mood you're in.

My thoughts are with you & your family Gords.
I don’t think I can provide any words as good as others already have.
Just hope you can manage as best as possible though this terrible situation.

This an awefull lot to take in for any man to handle it really is hard wben life hits its all at one time my sincerest prayers if it doesn't offend you go out to you and your family and I don't think there is much you could do here on this forum to really say is unforgivable except maybe start pushing surefire just kidding you shared what was bothering which is an awful lot for any one and apologized. To those you feel you think you may have offended as a man. Now its up to them any self respecting person seeing your sincerity should let it go and mo. On and I pray your situation improves:-)

Here’s wishing for the best to you and your family.
