I hope he crossed gently.
Please take care of yourself...
And may he rest in peace.

(2,446 posts)I came here to this forum tonight to find the link to his blog. I started reading it several weeks ago, but couldn't find it when I tried typing the direct link. I wish so badly that I would have commented... said anything... but I couldn't think of anything to say that would help. I just wanted to curse Japan's marijuana laws... I was hoping beyond hope that he would get better. You and his family have my condolences.

Do what you can to support his family, these are tough times.

(3,998 posts)Been through this many times. Actually, his family is handling it very well. They spent his last month with him, and they really connected and all grieved together. Very lucky they could do this.
