Kim injured while travelling abroad
A few days ago, my wife was seriously injured in a car accident about 60km east of Vientiane, Laos, while travelling alone. She suffered multiple fractures, including a spinal fracture. A few days later, I’m relieved to be able to report that she is in no danger of paralysis. After surgical repair in a hospital in northern Thailand, the worst is now over.
I am posting this from the airport in Taipei, during a long wait for a flight to Bangkok, on my way to Thailand to meet Kim, and take care of her for a few weeks before she can be flown home.
Publishing this website is more of a lifestyle than a business, and I will not stop working entirely. I wouldn’t want to, even in a crisis: my work is an anchor for me, and there were be long, quiet hours to tap away on the ol’ laptop while Kim rests and recuperates. At the same time, I think it’s safe to say that customer service emails will probably be a slower than usual, and some kinds of email will be deferred for weeks. If I can answer something quickly and easily, I will. If there’s a critical purchase issue, I will respond to that as soon as Thai internet connections will allow.
Thank you in advance for your patience.
