I received this email from Derrick @ Knives Ship Free yesterday.

The 10 days or so have been hard to take around here. You guys know my wife, Wendy as the one who answers your emails and calls.

Over the past year, unbeknownst to us, she has been developing a sizable brain tumor (about the size of a tennis ball.) The tumor has begun to significantly effect her memory and some of her cognitive skills.

The doctors are very hopeful that we will be able to have Wendy back 100%. This next week, she goes into the hospital on Wednesday and will have open brain surgery the next day.

We would appreciate your prayers. If you click on the picture of Wendy and me, you will go to her CaringBridge site (you enter at "my story" but you can check the welcome page for regular updates). It is just a blog where you can find out what is going on with her. We have a dear friend who is keeping it up for us. You probably remember her. She is Trish.

What about KSF?

Trish has been working with us for about 5 or 6 months taking pictures and putting things up on the website and has a great understanding of our business. She is taking on many more hours and will be answering email and telephones.

Annette has shipped for us for over a year and does a fabulous job. She is also taking on some more responsibilities.

So, KnivesShipFree goes on. We tell you this because we don't want you to lose faith in our commitment to being your go-to place for knives.

Thank you for being our customer. Thank you more for your prayers.

Sincerely,


Derrick & Wendy Bohn

Got the same. Best wishes and prayers coming from CT!
 
Derrick and Wendy are good people. Sending prayers and thoughts to the entire Bohn family and Wendy's entire medical team.
 
Derrick, you and Wendy have been beyond good to me. I really hope things turn out for the best for the two of you.
 
Our prayers and thoughts go out to you and Wendy. I know this is going to be a tough week for y'all and possibly weeks to come. Just remember that no one walks alone. You have a great community of friends and we all stand together at times like these. My wife and I will be praying for both of you.
God bless you both.
 
May God provide Wendy swift and complete healing, and keep you both strong in this time of stress.
 
I, too, have done several knife transactions with these fine folks. I was bummed out when I got the email from Derrick. I have spoken to Wendy over the telephone and she is as nice as can be and very efficient.

I hate seeing bad things happen to good people.
 
Hopefully everything will be perfectly okay and this will only be one of life's many speedbumps, just a bad memory that can fade with time.
 
Positive thoughts from the Pleasant Valley!
 
When I pulled up my e-mails a few nights ago, I noticed the e-mail title, and was expecting something knife related...

Smoke going up from Oregon, for a quick recovery.
 
According to her blog,today is Wendy's surgery date.

We're all praying & hoping the best for you,Wendy.
 
Thanks everyone! Wendy is doing very well. Looks like her next surgery is the 16th of February.
