Hi Guys
It is with the greatest regret that I wish to say that My Best Friend and Supporter of my life has passed. My wife (Grandma) passed on Monday night November 2, 2015 from Cancer.
She was my greatest supporter when it came to my DC work. whenever I said I was going to buy something for DC the answer was always without hesitation go ahead. I am writing this to hopefully encourage other people to run DC projects in hopes of someday finding a cure or effective treatment for some of the terrible diseases out there.
Many have not seen the results of what some of these diseases can have on a persons life, such as Grandma was tethered to a 50' cord that was attached to an Oxygen machine for the last 5 years. We were fortunate in that we had the ability to acquire portable equipment which still allowed her to be mobile and get out of the house but many do not. This is just one example of how these disease can affect a persons life, there are many others that go along with it.
Even in her final hours of life Grandma still supported my DC work when I asked her if I should get a couple more GPU's to fold with she smiled at me and shook her head yes. Needless to say you are going to see my production go up soon.
Any of you who wonder if it is worth it or not I have just one question for you to ask yourself, if there is the sightsees possibility that you could keep one of your Grandchildren from having to suffer from one of these diseases would you do it. ?
I just wish to say to everybody DC with what you can and however much you can because in reality the reward does have the possibility of being great.
Fold on / DC on
