Hello everyone. It's been sometime since I last posted and I'm sorry about that.
I need to start this thread by saying a massive thank you to the community. At a time when I needed you, you came through. I'll be eternally grateful.
As most of you will know. My wife passed away in early September. It's been the hardest thing I've ever been through. On top of that Dinafem and HSO got raided in Spain. So to say I lost everything ain't an understatement.
Let's chat about that, where I'm at now and where I go in the future.
Past events!
With Dinafem. I know as much as was published online.
The feds came knocking and essentially shut us down. It could take up to 5 years to get to court. It's a bad situation which I do hope gets resolved. It will take time.
Now with HSO. Pretty much the same as Dinafem but HSO has 2 aspect. Think of it like this
HS (Humboldt Seeds) based in the USA
O (Organisation) based in Spain.
The Organisation is in the same boat as Dinafem but the USA part is still active. They need to rebuild. Which they will. This will take sometime to figure out.
All we can do is hope for the best and that the courts side in our favour. When I learn more I'll keep the community updated.
Where I'm at now!
As you can imagine, I'm not in the best place but I'm still alive and kicking. It's super hard to live a life with out your partner. It's only been 5 months and it ain't getting easier but I must try to move forward.
On top of losing my wife and work the feds also confiscated my grow. The same day she died. So that literally left me with nothing.
I do have my kids, family and dogs. I'm not on my own but this is hard.
I'm no where near capable of working as before but I do need to stay occupied and I know this industry very well and it's a community I love.
So,
The future!
As both brands i represented are essentially closed down, I've been offered a home with @Seedstockers_Mischa and it's an offer I've accepted. I will be back on the AFN very soon and I can't wait!
Did someone say #solocupchallenge ?
I'm really sorry it's taken me so long to get a post up. It's been a nightmare of epic proportion.
I also need to thank @St. Tom for arranging the floral arrangements for my ladies funeral. It was beautiful and a big thank you to all that contributed.
Right, that's my statement which was hard to write.
Thank you AFN. See you in the @Seedstockers_Mischa sub-forum
All the best
