I wrote this for the Dom forums, tweaked it a bit for the few of you who know me.

As you know I'm taking a break from WoW. It's been two years that I have been playing this game. My first character I met no one really awesome, except for that weird kid that kept wanting to help me quest who now goes by the name of Taypion/Minosha.

But I really met some awesome awesome people on Tortheldrin and then tons more once we transfered to AoS. I have met friends that support me in my trails and tribulations and friends that are always around to make me smile.

I will be back! I know I will, Wrath of the Lich King.

I wish I could just play WoW and AoC but I am physically unable to work for several reasons. At this time at least.

As some of you may know I am a two time ovarian cancer survivor. I'm fighting it again, I just started my chemotherapy last month and I have 5 more months to go thus far and I hope plans do not change to make it any longer. I want to go to college. But since I won't be able to talk to the many of you who are concerned or at least act it you can find updates of how I'm doing at http://gemmag.blogforacure.com/weblog . I update it regularly although there are a lot of odd moments where I'm swearing up a storm because you wouldn't believe how frustrating it is as a 20 year old woman to have such boundaries.

But for those who don't want to keep up on stuff. I'll be fine and I'm 100% sure that I'm going to come out of this and be the sexiest bald chick eva!

I'll be popping on and off of WoW until May 16th when my subscription expires.

Keep progressing and one shotting everything in your pathways. I expect to see you right behind Dominion/Bloodsky in two weeks time after I leave!

<3 I'll miss you.

Hey girl! I never had a chance to meet/quest/chat/"kill horde" with you, and I'm sad for that. My prayers are with you, you sound like a fighter. It's people like you that make online experiences worth while.

You will be missed but never forgotten
Look forward to when you come back an we can kick some ass together again

You are an amazing person Gemma! I will always be thinking of you and manifesting every ounce of good energy I can into your life. If you ever need anything from me..dont hesitate. I can fly anywhere in the country for dirt cheap..and I will if you ever need me. *bighugs*
