Having read several posts and noticing the term karbon effect coming up quite a bit, I thought I would take the time to explain exactly what the karbon effect ia.
In 2009 my father suffered several heart attacks in a 2 day period, this resulted in a very long time in hospital for my father, and some very serious doubts as to if he was even going to pull through. In the end, after a triple bypass and having a stent put in, he pulled through. All of a sudden several months ago, he took an infection in his knee which again led to a long hospitilisation and further stress and strain on my mother. My father has not been well at all for the past 6 months, and here is the kick in the ghoulies, my mother was diagnosed with terminal cancer 4 months ago. This has resulted in me travelling back to Northern Ireland a lot to shoulder some of the burden, it has ruined me emotionally and strained me financially, but when its your parents, needs must. In my book my family will always come first.
I sincerely apologise for the effect on the club, it was not my intention to cause any harm or grief to the club or its members, and for the record I did actually send a lot of membership packs out. I took the decision that my family come first, and to be completely honest with everyone that wasnt a hard decision to make. I do have all the relevant bits for Dave, as explained in texts, I work nights so im sleeping throughout the day, I have 2 days off a week, i sleep the first 1 and im around for the second one. I will happily post everything recorded if need be.
Understandibly there are no doubt a lot of you cursing me, for those people, I sincerely hope you never get put in the situation I find myself in. I admit I started out dealing with it in the wrong way, but I have now come to terms that its likely Ill lose both my parents before I hit 40, thats 3 years away, and I fully intend to enjoy what time we have left together.
Again my apologies to all. If its ok with people here, I would like to renew my membership if there are no objections?
