Thanks everyone for your support. This has been the most difficult thing I have ever experienced and the thoughts and prayers from my friends do provide some comfort.
Obviously I wont be playing for a bit. There is so much to do and I really don't feel up to gaming anyway. I just want everyone to know that even though I am not in the game every day and on the forum that this squad, my friends, will always have my loyalty. I will not walk away like some squad leaders in the past who let their squads wither and die after they left the game. I just need some time off and promise I am not far away. Sid, Dunc, and Dire all know how to get in touch with me any time, day or night. In my absence I know that the squad Air Marshals, Skeeter, Sid, Dunc, Dire, Cy, and Pappy, are all capable of doing recruiting, kicking, and any other minor squad issues that may arise. The Wolf Pack AM's are a loyal group who I know are more than able to keep the squad up and running the way it should... killing reds, having fun.
Family first guys. Be nice to one another. Tell your family how much you love them, and your friends how much you appreciate them often. You never know what tomorrow will bring.
