First off, I'm only really writing this here because several of the people I'd like to address can be reached in no other way...*sigh* anyway, let's get this over with...

As most of you probably don't know, my grandfather was diagnosed with a form of stomach cancer that caused his liver to fail...for the past week, my family has been visiting the hospital in shifts, since the doctors told us he wasn't gonna make it anyway. Today, he flatlined three times, managing to get back from each one on his own...but at 11:50 on December 23rd, he drew his last breath and gave up the fight.

This blog entry is to publically thank those of you (mainly the NeW crew) who were supporting me this whole time, even though I've never met them in person. It does my heart good to know that you all have cared so much about me in this time of need, and I wanted to thank you all for your support. It has done me a world of good to have you guys with me this whole time. So I thank you from the bottom of my heart and hope that I'll have y'all for a long time to come.

Really, really sorry this happened, Chris...I hope you pull through this in the end. I've had my own share of grief, so I know what you must be going through. Just remember your friends are here for ya. ^^;

Chris, I'm really sorry to hear that this happened. I talked to you briefly about this, but know that you have friends to go to when things like this happen. I apologize for not being able to say all that much, but I never was good at talking about these situations..

My best wishes to you and your family to get through this tough time.

May he rest in peace.

Don't let it stress you out, Chris. Prove to your Pops that you can help him by winning your life-long battle.
Just about everybody who still plays Melee is here for you. But it goes... So, so much more than that. We're all a community here to hel; regardless.

He needs his rest, as do all senile, including the young.
