Default I'm Tim..aka Jarhead and I'm in repair

I'm Tim also known as Jarhead a hydraulic engineer / fluid power specialist and one of two working for a national corp covering south eastern Wisconsin...I also have a side buss, here in the sub level of my home..Both were fine until recent events surrounding the proffesional side became broken. Mid January my good freind of fifteen years and co-engineer at work became ill and took sick leave to be treated for what was diagnozed as pnemonia and fluid in the lungs. two weeks turned into a month and I began pulling extra hours to keep up during his absence all along trying to keep the home bussiness going as well. I became stretched thin with multi tasking and a physical injury hampered the situation even more. work began to suffer at both ends. Now two months have passed and Friday while visiting my freind he informed me to begin seeking his replacement for he has an aggressive strain of mesophelanoma a aspestos born cancer attacking the outer lining of the lungs, it.s untreatable and with kemo and radiation he's simply buying time. time given is six to eight months unless God gives him a pardon. 48 yrs old , wife , son and daughter and I have no idea how he can't be angry or feel cheated but my heart is broken for my very good freind..
I've pulled back my hours and weve sub'd out work till we find a replacment. as far as work from the cave the orders I have in house I will complete as quickly as possible to get them out to you all. Decals and graphics are sub'd out to my wife and will go as usual. I will look at orders for panels and if they are graphics that my wifes graphics shop can handle they will, if they are something I have to address myself they will be held until I clear up the orders presently in house..then they will be taken care of in the order I recieve them. I will work thru this as quickley as I can and I ask for extended patience as I get my house in order. Tim

There are things much more important in life then we realize and sadly it takes something like this for us to realize exactly where our priorities should lie!

Best of luck and prayers to you, you co-worker and his family. God Bless!

Hi `Tim,
Stay strong and keep your faith. Life is full of many problems, and we each must do our best to resolve them.

We wish you the strength to endure. Rember to take good care of `Self, so that you can assist/help others in your life that need you. The best to you/family & friends.

Sorry to hear about your friend Tim. I lost a friend a few years back to that. He was a machinist in the Navy. Rough stuff asbestos. Get yourself better soon.
We'll talk one evening this week about my panel and what to do.
