I'll cut right to the chase: my grandfather was admitted to the hospital ICU recently. He's been in a battle with lung cancer for about 8 months now and doctors don't think he's going to live much longer. Therefore, I am on an indefinite wikibreak, as I feel most of my time now should be spent at the hospital to make my grandfather's final days as comfortable as possible. I may eventually return but I'm not sure when this will be. I do have a few requests:
1. The only thing on my user page and my talk page should be this notice. Anything else is vandalism and I ask that it be reverted.
2. Please do not leave any messages on my talk page, as I will not receive them.
3. If you need to get in touch with me, I've set up an e-mail address specifically for the purpose of receiving and sending e-mails from fellow Wikipedians. The e-mail address is ontheothersidewikipediagmail.com (this is not my primary e-mail so I won't be checking it everyday. Please allow a week or so for a response).
I thank you all for your understanding and I give everyone my best wishes.
