Problems at home: we're going to have to cancel Worldcon

[dianeduane]

Well, obviously the convention will go on without us. But unfortunately, we're not going to be able to make it.

Peter's mum is having some health problems at the moment that leave us both very uneasy with the prospect of being away from home for three weeks straight. So we're scrubbing Worldcon from our schedule.

Our apologies to those who might have been hoping to see us there. We'll miss seeing you too.

Our well-wishes to Peter for his mother.

I was really hoping to get to meet you, and introduce myself.

First the news that SG-1 is being cancelled .. now this :-(

Well, poo. And best to Peter's mum.

What Keith said, Diane. :)

You'll both be missed. But Peter's mum is definitely the priority.

I'm sorry to hear that. I won't be at Worldcon anyway (can't afford it), but you guys just seem to be having pretty miserable luck at the moment. Best wishes to Peter's mum, and hope she gets well soon.

After all, family does come first.

Hope Mum gets well soon.

2006 really doesn't like you, does it? :( Please give my best to Peter and I'll be keeping my fingers crossed for his mum.

Best wishes to Peter's mum; I hope her health problems are remedied as easily and completely as can be.

That's a shame, but I cannot fault your priorities.

Family comes first!
I'm just grateful that you managed to be there this weekend :-)

Much sympathy here.

(I'm missing worldcon but for entirely different reasons. Although my mum did try to book a hip joint replacement to coincide with it, just because ...)

Best wishes to Peter's mum and that she'll get well soon.

You'll be deeply missed. I'll keep good thoughts for Peter's mum.

Jeez, I hope everything works out okay.

I'm very sorry to hear that. You'll be missed at the con.

Best wishes on Peter's mom.

I'll send her a note, cheer her up a bit.

Let me know if you need anything else, any help, you know you only need to ask.

FF, worried.

My very best wishes for Peter's mother's speedy recovery. It was lovely meeting you and Peter at Discworld and hearing all about the feisty Irishwoman's skill with the Aga.

[xnamkrad.livejournal.com]

Please give Peter my regrets and I hope all turns out OK. If there is anything I can do, please just ask.

[klarken-t5477.livejournal.com]

Hope Peter's mom heals well and soon.

Diane, I've only just spotted this.

I hope Peter's mum gets better soon.

( I really must add you and Peter to my friends list. )
