Thank you all for your condolences.

My BIL didn't know he was diabetic and was sick for about a week. And what do we all do (at least in the States) when we vomit, drink gatoraid and coke and ginger ale. So 4-5 days of nothing but sugary drinks put him in a diabetic coma (his glucose level was over 600) on lifesupport. His heart stopped and on the 4th time they couldn't get him back.

I tell these personal things as a public service, learn about the warning signs of diabetes (http://diabetes.webmd.com/guide/unde...betes-symptoms)
so hopefully this doesn't happen to yourself or a loved one. He was only 29.

On to lighter things...Morsul, if anyone has to leave the game I can jump in as is for them.
