Well, from what I've heard from my parents, he had a seizure last night, perhaps an epileptic episode, fucking died, had a near death experience, my dad called the paramedics, they showed up, took him to the hospital, and he woke up covered in tubes, and started complaining.
On top of that, we've found an important flaw in our house renovation. So though ill, I've been working to get it fixed. Will post more later on the day, but...the birthday isn't what we'd hoped it'd be.
