In a few days I am going into hospital for major surgery and a long recovery is anticipated due to various factors. I'm announcing here (because it is more likely to be read by more members) that I am unavailable for mod requests via PM until further notice. Please use the other means of reporting (the attention thread, report button or PM other team members).
The surgery is scheduled for Thursday NZ time - five days away - and I am taking leave from today.
Though I am no stranger to major surgery, having undergone quite a number since 2010, this is the first one that I have been very anxious about given my current debilitated state and general health issues.
I will miss the members who especially brighten WP for me, and think of you while I am away. It might be a while before I return.
Wishing you all peace and calm here. In these troubled times I hope WP can again function as a haven from the contentious other planet out there, and return more fully to the supportive place it was in former times.
