[MR] this weekend

[lghthse]

As many of you know, my brother John (aka: Brother Willson of St. Ignace
whom many of you know from Pennsic) had emergency surgery last week.  He had
to have the bones and disks in the neck removed and replaced.  The operation
was successful, he is walking some, talking a little so not paralized as we
had feared (thank you for your thoughts and prayers for this).  However, I
am still with him in the Upper Penninsula of Michigan (980 miles from
Northern Virginia).  He has a critical doctors appointment on Thursday in
the Sault (Soo) and has no transportation but me.  As the drive home is so
far I regret to say I must yet again make people upset with me because I
will not be able to get home and down to Marinus this Saturday to teach. 
Please forgive me but he is unable to drive and will be layed up for 12 more
weeks (visiting nurse starts Friday morning).  I will happily teach these
two classes again and if someone would like to offer me an event to do them
at I will do my best to be there.  Please contact me if you have any
questions and my best to everyone going to this event.  It will take me 2
days to get home as taking care of myself is sometimes a challenge and
taking care of an invalide is not easy to begin with.  I will see you all
soon,
B. Annejke
