I have not blogged since the beginning of the year. When you own a business, and you are responsible for making it go, there is only so much you can do when your world blows up around you. On the 16th of April, Chris, my wife and partner of 30 years, lost her 15 year battle with Multiple Sclerosis. Her last few months were horrible, with multiple stays in hospitals, spending her last three weeks at Tidelands Hospice House in Georgetown, SC. Chris' courage and bravery inspired me every day. She never complained about the pain she was in, or how tough it was to get through the day. Friends and acquaintances were always amazed at the positive attitude she had and the smile she wore, even while she was suffering. I tell you this not to make you feel sad, nor for your condolences. I am telling you about Chris, because she fought until the end. She was an example of how to adapt and make lemonade out of lemons. Her "never give up" attitude will act as a constant reminder to me that no matter the obstacle, if it is worth doing, I shouldn't give in. And so, I will be rededicating myself to my company and you, my client.
I will miss her very much.
Thanks for reading,
Jack
