    A request for understanding and patience.

    As some of you know, my Mom-In-Law had a major spine surgery two weeks ago.
    After bringing her home, she developed a serious infection which quickly spread system wide.
    We have just placed her in Palative care and we do not expect her to survive much longer.

    If neccessary I will close the kilt shop for a few days. I am already over two weeks behind and getting further by the day.

    To all of you who have kilts on order, I appoligise and request your understanding and patience.

    I have just hired a new full-time seamstress and Jewddha will come on board as soon as school ends. We may also be forced to move the shop across the street as my current landlord wants to sell the building and the prospective new owners want my corner location for a cold beer and wine store.

    I'll try and keep everyone informed and updated but please forgive if I miss someone.

    I'll also try to check in here at least every few days.

    Thank you to all who have expressed good wishes, and prayers. It is appreciated.

    I WILL BE BACK!

    Steve, best wishes to you and my sincerest prayers for your mother-in-law. Having lost my step-mother to a very similar situation in March, I sympathize.

    Business will wait, taking care of family will not.

    I echo the sentiments of everyone else, Steve. Nothing in life is more important than family.
