Radioware News
Limited
Operations Restarted
After a very serious life or death family heath crisis, Radioware will now be open for business on a limited basis.
We're sorry for any past inconvenience in fulfilling your radio needs during our recent business shut-down and hope that you'll continue to shop with us for your future radio needs. While we'll try to fulfill your needs promptly within the coming months, there may be times that we may fall short in service, due to family needs. We only hope that you'll understand and can be patient in dealing with us.
Personal
Update
Many of you have contacted me off line regarding the reasons why I had to shut my business down expressing concern and prayers for my family.
Since we are now home and embarking on recovery I thought I'd share with you a more detailed explanation of what is going on.
On Thursday night February 28 while on a ski vacation in Colorado, my wife woke with a horrible headache and vomiting and was very weak. Realizing that something was terribly wrong, I took her to the hospital where they were treating her for altitude sickness and other issues and prophylactically did a CT scan of her brain. The doctor came in to the ER after the CT and said there was an aneurysm and it was leaking.
To make a long story short, they got a helicopter to fly her to Denver where we spent almost 17 days in the ICU. The good news is that each intervention saved her life and we may escape without any serious effects. The sad fact is that 50% die and 38% have life altering complications according to the neuro-surgeon. He did say that it looked like we were in the lucky 12% who have no significant issues. Time will tell.
Needless to say, I had to make some hard decisions about Radioware and Radio Bookstore that necessitated getting help from Davis RF but suspending some of my operations.
The good news is that now that we are home and are running with a limited schedule. The reality is that my wife and family come first though and there are going to be times that I will be unavailable.
Thanks for
your Support!
I would like to thank all of you who did contact me for your concern, prayers, positive karma..whatever you sent, it helped. I have never been so scared in my life and my friends and family were what sustained me in MY hour of need.
