Due to a serious family emergency I'm going to have to stop blogging for while. I have no idea when I will be back. I will return though, I promise. Please be patient.
Our thoughts are with you and we are all hoping that everything turns out okay. You do so much for us; we can at least send our well wishes to you. We will be waiting patiently, promise.
I'm so sorry! I hope things get better fast. I'm not sure what I'm going to do without my Dr Grumpy fix, but make sure to take care of yourself too! And not just the family member/emergency.
I know I'm not alone in wishing you all the best in everything you're dealing with, Doc. You have lots of loyal readers praying for you and your loved ones. We'll all be here when you get back.
Delurking to wish you and yours the very best. My family and I have been through our share of hard times, and I know how it seems to take over everything in life. Take care of yourself and your family. Looking forward to your return.
Got your back. You need guest artisan snark, we're your people. (Seriously. I got an advertisement for handbuilt outhouses made from recylced barn wood described as "artisan outdoor environmentally friendly bathrooms." Like there's anything anvironmentally friendly about a cesspit.
I'm sorry, but as a consumer of your blog, I'm going to have to insist that you keep providing me with free entertainment throughout whatever personal problems you're currently suffering.
As I'm a complete stranger who has no interests beyond the internet, I believe it's my right to complain when there hasn't been an update in a while, and I feel I should be pandered to, despite the fact that I have provided no monetary support towards your blog.
Take care and take care of your family, Doc. They come first, before anyone else. :) We'll be here waiting patiently when you return. <3 Drop in and give us a word when you get the chance, just to let us know how it's going. We care about you!
Prayers for you and your family...hope everything will be OK. Another who will be awaiting your return when things get back to some semblance of normalcy.
Take care of your family, Dr. Grumpy. Sending positive thoughts out your way. Looking forward to having you back but take all the time you need. Family is First in my book. :o)
My thoughts are with you and your family, Grumpy, I hope everything resolves quickly and smoothly-- or at least as much of those two things as can be expected in whatever the situation is.
In the meantime, I'll look for artisinal sympathy cards.
But, but, but... how am I supposed to get through MY crisis (which of course is MUCH more important than YOUR crisis) without your blog?! I demand to see a doctor that actually CARES about patients!
::huff!::
In all seriousness though, good thoughts are coming your way from lots of people here, and with this post, from one more loyal reader.
Thinking about you. Hoping for a good resolution to the trouble your family is experiencing. Your stories always lift my spirits. Wish I could do the same for you.
Hope everything gets better, and that you can eventually get back to normal. Hugs and positive vibes being sent your way from Florida, we will all be here waiting patiently for you to be ready to return!
Sending many positive thoughts your way, Ibee. Take all the time you need, we'll all be here when you return. Until then know that everyone is thinking about your entire family and everyone that's being affected.
Another regular subscriber, you've brought me laughter while i study medicine, the least i can do is send you well wishes. I pray for peace to come to you and your family
Late but just saw this. My family has severe health issues (PPS and MS) and would be lost without our own beloved neuro; we read your page religiously but in spurts (health permitting) rather than daily - hence the delay.
All our gratitude to you for the joy and comfort you bring to so many, and our sincere wishes that you have the love and support in YOUR time of need, that you have shown so many others.
Another voice from the internet, another family and their SD caring about you and yours.
This blog is entirely for entertainment purposes. All posts about patients, or my everyday life, or anything else may be fictional, or be my experience, or were submitted by a reader, or any combination of the above. Factual statements may or may not be accurate. I could be making all this up. I may not even be a doctor. The only true statement on here is that I probably drink more Diet Coke than you do. A lot more.
