Five years ago today I lost my wife to brain cancer. The year leading up to that day was pure hell for me but I always found some solace and escapism here on the McAndrew board. Countless nights were spent at the hospital, and when my wife was sleeping I usually ended up here on this board catching up on Penn State football, pop culture, world events, and numerous other topics.
I also used this board to vent my sadness, grief and helplessness during that time. Thank you for allowing me to do that.
I’m in a great place today and though it might seem a bit gratuitous, I know this board played a role with that. I got a lot of support and advice here and I took it all to heart. To this day, no matter where I am or what I’m doing, the days are few that I don’t stop by and at least see what’s going on here.
So thanks to all of you.
Now let’s kick some ass this season.
We Are…
