It's been a rough few months, but I remain optimistic. I'm having a really great time with my family, being home more than usual.

I have not had any full blown vertigo attacks since the last one I spoke about that had me rushed in an ambulance to the ER but I've had a lot of smaller episodes. It's kinda of like the after shocks after a major earthquake, not that bad but still bothersome.

I've been holding off publishing this post for a very long time because it's intensely personal. But I've been unusually AWOL around the web and local meetup groups enough that some people are starting to notice. I'm getting a lot of "where are you? I hope you're ok" messages lately, so I thought I'd fill people in. I've also got a few clients that for sure have noticed a slow down in productivity and deserve an explanation. This post was originally twice as long.
