It's been a while

[tsunkasapa]

So, it's been quite some time since I've been here. I was offered a job as Traffic Control Supervisor on a road project that was keeping me busy with 60-70 weeks. Didn't give me much time for anything but work and sleep. That was back in '24. The job lasted until November, and on the day before Thanksgiving I took my wife to the Dr for 'abdominal discomfort'. We were told she had a mass in her abdomen, and we would have to go to the hospital and get a CT scan. Turns out 'the' mass was 3, on her liver, pancreas and kidneys. I will condense the next 7 months, but it was a very ugly fight with cancer that didn't respond to treatment, and I lost her the end of June last year. So, the last half of '25 I just really didn't feel like doing much. But it is a new year, and I have been getting myself back together. So, I hope to be back here more often going forward.

I've wondered why you were absent. Mere words pale after such a thing, but my condolences on your terrible loss.

I'm glad you're finding your way back and back here.

 It's great to hear that you're on the mend and have returned to the forum.

I really am not good at condolences, but as a one-time husband of 40 + years, I know there are no words. I can't even begin to fathom your loss and am so very, very sorry.
