Cetan08 311 #1 Posted December 19, 2018 On Wednesday last I laid my Mother to rest after her bringing joy to many lives for 88 years. The Thursday before my wife's Dr. at Cleveland clinic told her that she may be in stage four of her auto-imune disease that is destroying her liver. We go back to Cleveland tomorrow, Thursday, for a biopsy to confirm her condition. If it is confirmed, she will need a liver or will have roughly six months. Right now I am just staying in prayer along with many others. Yesterday I received an unexpected package in the mail that contained a Wheel horse tee shirt. A member on here sent it as a thank you but it is more than that. It lifted our spirits and turned our thoughts to planning for shows and outtings together. A small gift with a huge impact. To that member I say from our hearts, Bless You. In one of the posts on here members write about what gets them excited. I think that we all can say that finding that one piece that completes a project or finally gets it running tops that list. I make it a point to go to the wanted section and see if there is something that I have or can direct a member to in order to reach that point. Not a lot of effort but it can make a huge impact. I have seen this many times on this site and that speaks for the caliber of the people that's on here. Bless You All. 9 1 3 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sarge 3,462 #11 Posted December 20, 2018 Sorry to hear that, losing a parent is never easy, no matter the age. Lost my Dad on my birthday, that was rough but he went in his sleep and that's all we can ask for in this world. Small things matter - having a community of support and similar interests sure helps - we're a big family here and that's what truly matters. Sarge 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
