Bad news
Well boys and girls, I come bearing bad news. I am letting you all know that I may end up being on less and less. I have just found out this morning that my mom has been diagnosed with cancer. The doc says her right kidney is half full of it and has to go. We will find out more in may. I thank you all on this site for the information and introduction to the wonderful art of distillation. You have been essential to my advancement as well as everyone's in this hobbie. Cheers for now and keep on keepin.
Keep on keepin

Sorry to hear that, Python, wishing the best for your mom.
A good reminder that every day is a gift, even if it doesn't feel that way.
Take care, be with her and help her get better.

Re: Bad news
So sorry to hear about your mother, I just buried mine on Tuesday. Stay close to her, make sure your last words are I love you, anytime you leave it could be the last words said. May God's perpetual light shine upon you and her, may He keep you and bless you.
