Some of you may have noticed

[Wookiee]

That I have not been contributing much here since September last year, I know a couple of tunes have been posted but they were nearly done.

The reason is that in September I was diagnosed with skin cancer, it appears that three inches of red-brown fur and a heavy jacket is not sufficient to protect the Wookiee skin.  Perhaps I also need to check the UV shields on the Millennium Falcon.

Anyway two surgeries later and a 6.5cm by 5cm by 1.5cm deep (3" by 2" by 1/2") hole in the forearm of my right fore paw has limited my ability to do anything very much other than listen, which I have done quite a bit and found it to be quite enjoyable.  Typing or using the mouse has been and still is quite painful, as to playing keys or my guitars impossible.

Anyways thanks for all the music and hopefully now I have received the all clear, for this location, once the wound heals some more I will be back making noises and commenting to you guys and girls about your music. 

Thanks for keeping this furry alien from total madness with your music.

Thank you for posting the update.  We are all family (music, BandLab, human, whatever) here and it's nice to keep up with the family.  ?

I hope your recovery continues to go well and look forward to your renewed participation soon.

Stupid dumb cancer. So glad you have clearance, Clarence. These things are unnerving. Thanks for telling us. Many good wishes for a complete recovery, musical and otherwise.

Thank you to you all, @Jim Fogle there is a little Wookiee in all of us as there is a little human in me.

Here's to a speedy recovery for you Wookiee - cheers.

Glad to hear you're on the mend. It can be difficult dealing with health issues but I hope at least the experience will inspire some new ideas for your upcoming works.

Thank to you all again, slow progress but I am getting there.

[Lynn Wilson]

I'd heard something through the grapevine, but I'm relieved to hear it from you and that you're recovering well.  I've missed time here, too, but because of family and personal stuff.  I look forward to hearing from you when you are fully recovered!
