A Thank You message from Russell

[Russell]

Hello, everyone. Long time no see, eh? I feel the need to take a moment and post a few words. Apparently, a few people have been asking around about me after my name was mentioned at Sunday’s event for “The System.”

Several people have contacted me wanting to know more about recent events in my life. It is true, I have had a recent medical… incident. Simply put, I wound up in a hospital for a few days with lots of needles being pushed into me, things being shoved down my throat, a variety of fluids being pumped into me… it was extremely unpleasant and genuinely frightening. However, the situation is manageable and I am back out, back to work and on the mend. (And, grateful to be here!)

I want to take this chance to thank the members of this community who have reached out to inquire how I am and wish me well, your concern is touching and it is greatly appreciated.

You will never know the power of someone saying, “Thinking of you,” until you are alone and frightened. Things will turn out fine and knowing that people are concerned has lifted my spirits and my energy. A sincere thank you to all of you.

A very special thank you to my friend @mike who stood beside me, literally, during part of this process.

Wish I could have been there to see everyone in person on Sunday, but some of you may recall I don’t seem to really fit Noah’s “needs” when it comes to being clay. If I have a place in this universe, I am not sure what it is, yet.

Again, thank you for the expressions of support and concern. It all really helped when I was down.

I don’t know who this Russell guy is that everyone is so happy to see, but hello and welcome back I guess. <3

[Russell]

@111error, keep an eye on him… I hear he can be a bit shady.

[Melissa]

(((huge hug))) happy to see you here Russell! One of these days we’ll have to meet so I can give you your birthday present that is like… several months old (facepalm) sorry

[Blondie]

Do you need medicinal Kit Kats? Cos I can totally sort that out. Great to see you back @russell, you’ve been missed ❤

[Lawrence Meyers]

Welcome back @russell and that you are on the mend. Things aren’t the same around here without you two lunatics.

[Russell]

Once again, I want to take a moment and express my appreciation to all of you who have wished me well here, in person or messaged me. It has been a rough time and such kindness and consideration is a healing factor.

And… yeah, Kit Kats. They help ya heal, too… am I right? 😉
