I want to start this update by thanking all of you for your kind words and, at the same time, thank you for your patience in this unfortunate set of circumstances. I am grateful to you for your kindness.
My situation has improved. I'm not great yet. What happens to me is that my immune system attacks my tissues. Given a few days of balanced meds, this seems to have halted the tissue damage and put things on a better track. I am still only eating yogurt and anything I can puree. Now it's all up to how fast my mouth, throat and body will heal.
To address the studio situation, this coming week is normally a week off. We have to leave it that way, a bit of time for healing. I'll keep you posted on how that's going around Friday. I'll do my best to give you a heads up if I think more time will be necessary, but my hope is that we do not miss another lesson week.
So, I believe, and hope, that I can be back in my chair at the studio beginning Monday, the 2nd of February. For the time being, I am going to assume so. Thereafter, we can feed your lesson from this past week into the following week and do three straight weeks. For those who cannot make that next week work because they have commitments, we can move to the dark week two weeks down the road.
Again, gratitude. Please feel free to ask any questions you may have.
Tim
