Well it looks like even the best plans can go awry. Due to health reasons I can't make Blade this year. I've been planning this since last summer but I think taking care of my Mother far outweighs Blade. I'm keeping my hotel reservation until the last minute in case things change but if they don't is there anyone that could proxy for me?
Hobbes, I was really looking forward to meeting you in person, but your Mom DOES have priority. Good for you for taking care of her, and don't worry about a proxy.
