Taking My Leave

[Waning Embers]

going without an Internet connection nowadays is a tough call - it has become a dependency for living;

I first got online back in 2011 for forum use and shopping. Never used it for anything more than entertainment.

If you got a cell/smart phone and keep it active, could always toss a post on it!

A phone has always been my only internet connection. I've never owned a PC or laptop.

Best wishes, Duane. Thank you for your time and knowledge that you have shared with us.

Some of the posts in this thread seem to understand my vagueness. Though expenses are piling up, I'm tying up loose ends so my family doesn't have to.

I’ll chip in, I Garronte!

Bless you my friend. I may well not be around in a few months though. I'm just trying to remove final expenses to give my family less to deal with.

Thank you for your time, wit, and effort, Captain. We have been lucky to have you.

Well shit! I'm very saddened to hear of your health decline. You will obviously be missed here! I can't say thanks enough for the knowledge I gained from your post.

Hopefully some of our more obtuse members will finally grasp that you are tying up the loose ends as you near the end of your, I fervently hope, well lived life. You will leave an unfilled void here.

I wish you a smooth transition on your next great adventure.

I’ve always enjoyed your posts and wisdom. I’ll miss you.

I’ll miss seeing the skull and your wealth of knowledge Thanks for everything.

I don’t post often (not much to add yet) but I am on often to read and learn. I learned a lot from your posts. You will be missed. Best wishes

You will be missed greatly. You’ve always been very knowledgeable and helpful to all. I myself have learned so much from your posts and support. Hope when things get better you’ll be back. God bless until we see you again.

I’m really sorry to hear about your situation. Thank you very much for all of the knowledge you have shared with me and for the thousands of posts here that will remain after you’ve taken your leave. I’ll be smoking a bowl of Black Frigate now and sending my prayers your way.

 

[Waning Embers]

All of this love is humbling. I truly am a wealthy man.

Make sure you get at least a second opinion. Not all doctors are created equal. There is so much new info coming out, it's hard for them to keep up, so do your own research also.
Best of luck to you and don't give up!

Duane, Thank you, I have read your posts with great appreciation as a lurker way before I actually joined. Your wit & honest approach has made me chuckle AND laugh out loud. In fact, t'was something you said that made me decide I NEED to join this forum too. I wish you well, as you ready your ship for final sail.
Admire desire to finish strong.
Captain Embers, may you have fair winds & following seas.

I'm still praying for a miracle though ...

You deserve all of it, Duane.
