I have just been made aware that this great community on here have been rallying around, and putting a small collection together in support of me, and my family, I am speechless, and truly humbled to say the least, I was not expecting this, however this forum never seizes to amaze me, so I would like to extend my thanks tho everyone who has participated in the collection for me, and my family. THANK YOU ALL! Andy has been the brainchild behind this support, and it has been him working away behind the scenes collecting the donations, so yet again, I have to extend my sincere thanks to you, Andy for everything mate, you are amazing!

It could be the hand tube that has come loose from the hand itself. Run the chronograph for a minute or so, and see if the minute counter registers.

Thanks Legend for the kind works of support my friend.

Thanks guys, I have just sent out that group email, hope it goes out ok to everyone, its taking its time to send as there are almost 70 email addresses.

I will do that tomorrow, so will send a group email out to all current customers. I won't be taking on any new jobs until all current jobs are completed.

Thanks mate, having a hard time dealing with it right now, and some of my customers are getting a little worried, and impatient, wanting their watches back, and having to repeat myself over and over on why the delay, is tiresome.

My mom passed away peacefully in the last hour. I was on the phone with my sister, Kerry at the time of her passing. This, although expected, has weighed heavily on my persona, so please fdorgive me if I don't post anything for a few days. I wish to thank everyone who have shown support, strength, and prayers during my ordeal, and most importantly, Andy for getting me to my mom before she passed.

Thanks again everyone, I am indeed home now, but the emotional strain has taken a toll on me, I'm still not quite myself, so need some time to get myself together.

Thanks again everyone! I'm almost home now, currently in Helsinki waiting for my connecting flight to kuopio. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Well, I'm now back at moms house after talking to her, telling her I live her, and that I want her to keep building her strength. It's so emotional for all of us right now, I'm leaving here tomorrow to return back home to Finland, and will be checking daily on how mom is doing. Thanks everyone for your prayers and support you have shown, given, and offered, this place is amazing! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Small update, I'm with mom again, she is still the same, but now not acknowledging us being here at all now. Her pain relief has run out, so told the nurse, she said it will be renewed shortly. Mom does actually look a little mire comfortable in her face, but she is cold to the touch, plus her face muscles are tight too. Trying to get her to drink but she is unresponsive.

Damn, pressed submit instead if return! Update: I spent last night at my mothers bedside, she does not look well at all, she can't open her eyes, and can't speak properly, I told her I was there whilst holding her hand, she gripped my hand and whispered, love you. She managed to drink some more water. I spoke to her consultant but he couldn't give a forecast on how long she has left, he was hopeful that her liver and kidneys are ok. She's not eating at all though. I will be going back to stay with her tomorrow as I didn't sleep at all last night whilst I was with her. Will update you a further soon.

Welcome aboard, and Hei from Finland.

Thats my friend Mark, he has his own watch repair forums too

Andy's going to take me straight to the hospital G, and I will stay with her that night.

Thanks, I have been in contact with my sister all day, my mom has slept most of the day, fading in and out of a sleep state, when awake, she is unable to talk properly, but appears to know who's there with her, my aunties, uncles, and family have all been to the ward today too. Just heard from Emma that she managed to eat some ice cream this evening, so thats a good thing. My other sister, Kerry will be staying with her overnight in the ward.

Thanks Mike, Emma just sent this.. there is nothing more they can do x mom is dying x the myeloma has become very aggressive and has reached her lungs x

Thanks Luke.
