I know that a lot of people have posted here over the last couple weeks, and my responses have been extremely slow.  I wanted to apologize as well as explain.  The short story is that my wife ended up in the Emergency Room on December 22nd for blood clots.  She was admitted to the hospital because they had moved to her lungs causing a pulmonary embolism.  She was discharged and allowed to go back home on Christmas Eve, but was still on bed rest (with me giving her daily injections) for a while.

I thought things were going to be getting back to normal this week, but as it turns out we ended up in the emergency room again yesterday.  Luckily, the shortness of breath that had the doctors worried there were more clots turned out to be Bronchitis (I never thought I'd be happy that my wife had Bronchitis).

Basically, I know that I've been absent during the holidays, and I know that people's problems didn't stop during that time.  I'm sorry that everyone didn't get the service they've come to expect, but I clearly think that some things (like my family) are more important than work.  I hope everyone understands.  I'll be trying to respond to everyone as soon as possible.
