Voting Summary is ONLINE and results will come later tonight

[Mark Lamutt]

Everyone, I'm apologizing in advance because most likely I'm going to be late in getting the voting summary and results online this week. It'll probably be Saturday or Sunday before they show up.

We took one of our two cats to the vet this morning because he's been losing weight and not eating very much for the last couple of months. Turns out he's got a tumor the size of a fist in his stomach that is most like cancerous. We'll know tomorrow for sure when the blood work gets back, but try as hard as I can, I'm not hopeful at all.

I'm afraid that we're going to have to put him to sleep tomorrow, and that really breaks my heart. He's very much a part of my family and it's going to practically kill us to do it, but we can't bear to see him in any pain either.

I'm going to be in no frame of mind to deal with this much data, and frankly, I don't trust myself enough to not make a mistake with it. So, as soon as I recover enough from this, I'll get the site updated. I hope you all understand.

Don't apologize--you do what you have to do, and try to deal with it as best you can. I am incredibly sorry to hear about your cat; you and your family have my deepest sympathies. He'll understand, and he'll be waiting for you at that Rainbow Bridge.

Smoky, Brutus, Heidi, Maui, Gussie, and Tober send their best wishes and hopes to you. I know you'll do what's best. You and yours are in our thoughts and prayers.

Thanks guys.

Well, we got a glimmer of hope this morning from the vet for my cat. We're taking him in for surgury next Tueday morning to attempt to remove the tumor. I don't have a lot of hope, but I do have a little bit again.

So, I was able to get the voting summary done and uploaded, and the results will come later tonight. :)

Hope all goes well with your kitty. Don't worry about the summaries if its inconvenient. We can all add up the points in our heads.

Looks like few people got the bonus poll. Upon consideration though it was an obvious choice given the promos. The producers always like setting us up to guess between two candidates, and he was featured...

Looks like Dgenx321 and Ric swap positions at the top.

Any chance those of us who voted for Deena for Reward get partial credit? *wishful thinking*

Thanks for squeezing it in, I know you are worried about other things. I hope things work out for your cat.
