I don't know Ken :/ but what does this mean:
(taken from a posting of his 6 months ago)
"Ok now to the good stuff
My name is Ken (duh)
I am holding onto 29 years old as hard as I can (for 6 years)"
This sort of scares me! Is this a problem he has that he is talking about?
And now he is where he is? From what has been posted by his wife is
frightening... I hope he will be ok... I take it he is only 29ish? If so,
that's far too young. But at any age :(...
Nicole, I wish you and your family all the best and that Ken makes a quick
and fast recovery! It really does make you think about things and
appreciate that life is so precious.
I hope any future posts from you will be positive posts! And that those who
never got to meet Ken will still have a chance to say "hello" and share
thoughts etc.
On behalf of the Australian Lugnet I/we will be thinking and wishing you the
very best in every possible way! Please stay strong! Thanks and please
excuse me... it's always hard to know what to say in these situations.
Take care! Mel
