Never wanted to come and make a post like this.
Haven't been around much, which sucks, but work, life, kids blah blah blah....have made folding less of a priority than I would like..... I know that's just another stupid excuse, we've heard them all over the years and I'm sure that there will be more. But see, here's the thing.
I just found out my Mom has ovarian cancer, and it looks pretty bad. We won't know how bad until she has surgery, which will be over the next day or so.
Now, I realize that this may look like some kind of attention whore "look at me, oh my life is horrible" thread, but that ain't it my friends, not at all. Hell, I don't even know most of you, it's been that long. Point is this... you'll never win this fight if you give up as easily as I did. You guys know that, your still folding...... and that's the point.
Thank you. Thank you for not giving up, thank you for doing what you can with what you have. Thank you for giving so much to help people you don't even know, and fighting for a cause more noble than any other I can think of right now. You guys are fucking hero's in my mind and deserve more thanks and more appreciation than you'll ever get.
I guess I just needed to come back here right now.... this has always been a special place, and I know it still is. Special people doing special work.
Fold On brothers and sisters, we all need you to, we really do.
