Let's rather say, le Roi est indisposé, yes? Vive le Roi!

From what we can surmise from what Adrian has shared with us about his circumstances, it's unrealistic to suggest this is anything less than the direst news.

Well yes, but realistically what can we do other than offer emotional support?

Well yes, but realistically what can we do other than offer emotional support? That's my point. Emotional support is all we really can offer. Science may pull through, but realistically that's a longshot, and we should all recognize it. We should spend any interactions we might have with Adrian, letting him know how much we value him as a friend and fellow sword enthusiast. It does no one any good to pretend that the situation isn't as deadly serious as it is. Every one of us will be staring down this same circumstance one day. The best we can hope for is a life well lived, and to check out after saying something clever. “This wallpaper and I are fighting a duel to the death. Either it goes or I do.” -Oscar Wilde

I've always wanted to check out with a joke: "Now, near to my end, I've found the ultimate answer to all questions. it's ... aaaarrghhh". Praying for you Adrian, get well!

RIP, I’m so sad to come here for the first time in ages and see this. Prayers for his family. I used to be quite active here years ago, user name was wnydel. I remember him well from back then.

Adrian, may the Son of the LORD God of Heaven welcome you into his house, relieve you of your burdens, and give you rest, and may He bind up the hearts of your loved ones, and wipe every tear from their eyes. Well fought, good sir. Godspeed.
