Watchmeister Posted September 22, 2012 Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 Wishing you the best in what must be a horrifically difficult time. I would only add that whether you actually buy, sell or build watches come around when you can. I have always found RWG and friends on the forum to be a respite during troubled times.

davylloyd Posted September 22, 2012 Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 I don't know you, archierocks, I'm a noob here, but my heart goes out to you and your family. We've had our own heartaches in my family, I won't bore you with them here, and me getting back into reps was part of my getting back into some sort of normal world. I hope one day that you can find some solace back here on this forum, and I hope I'm here to see it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tomhorn Posted September 22, 2012 Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 (edited) Sorry to hear Kev. Unfortunately, life has this habit of getting in the way of things for everyone from time to time. I know we all hope your travails are short lived, and that you find your way back to this great hobby of ours once things settle for you again.

Nanuq Posted September 22, 2012 Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 Archie, what more can I add? These good people have said a lot, all I can do is agree with them. One thing that bears repeating is when life gets hard it's normal to want to isolate yourself. But that's the worst thing to do, because your friends keep you grounded, and keep your perspective. From that grounded perspective is where you're the strongest. So stick around, eh? You're part of us here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maulermacall@hotmail.com Posted September 22, 2012 Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 Im so sorry. It sounds as though you are wonderful and caring uncle for your niece. I know it's a very difficult and emotional time for you all but try not to neglect yourself and if possible try not to leave something that you enjoy and which could provide a good sounding board as well as a much needed distraction.
