Going Away for Awhile :-(

in U.S. Coin Forum
I know I haven't been around much lately, but I just wanted to let people know I might not be around for a while longer. I Just got word a few days ago I have to have major surgery at the end of this week (Friday to be exact). According to the doc if all goes well I'll be in the hospital for a week or so and recouping at home for another three to four weeks. If you pray, keep me in yours. See y'all later.
Just My 2 Cents,
Big Mike <><

Let your roots grow down into him and draw up nourishment from him, so you will grow in faith, strong and vigorous in the truth you were taught. Let your lives overflow with thanksgiving for all that he has done. --Colossians 2:7

    Mike, I just stopped what I was doing and sent

    a prayer to the big cheese upstairs. No not HRH, much higher.

    In fact, I went right to the good hearted lady who runs things.

    Looking foward to seeing you back on the Forum in tip top shape.

    The best to you and your family. Bear

    New collectors, please educate yourself before spending money on coins; there are people who believe that using numismatic knowledge to rip the naïve is what this hobby is all about.

    Well, tomorrow's the day. Thanks again everybody for all the kind words, thoughts, prayers etc. I wasn't going to post this thread because I figured it would come off self-serving in some strange way. You people have made me feel really special, though. I'll try and have an update on here as soon as I can. Until then, keep up what your doing.imageimage

    Yes indeed, coin collecting is trivial in the big scheme of things. But let's hope that bigindie is having a ball doing it all.

    He will have lots of stories for us when we join him one by one!

    Bigindie will indeed only going to be away for awhile.
