I have a sad tale to tell,
![[sadno] :sadno:](/forum/images/smilies/smiley_sadno.gif)
, while I was expecting Mr. Napoleon for Christmas circumstances beyond my control forced him to come a few weeks early.
It seems that he was having trouble in his old residence, and while the doctor told him he was supposed to stay lying down as much as possible, he's been on his feet for over 50 years now, he has been slipping away from us, evaporating right before our eyes. Sadly we had to open him up and find out what the problem was, we had an inkling, as his older brother's went through the same malady, and we have been enjoying his company in little bits every night since then.
We are afraid that he won't make it until Christmas, he'll be gone long before then, I fear that his passing will occur sometime over the course of this weekend.
Cheers to Mr Napoleon,
PS: On a happier note I can say that Jose WILL be joining us from Christmas Eve!

He had to come early, and will be gone before the weekend is over.
