In Black and White: The Time Has Come,’ the Walrus Said…

The time has come,’ the Walrus said,
To talk of many things:
Of shoes — and ships — and sealing-wax —
Of cabbages — and kings —

Some of the readers of the Chidlovski Blog Chidlovski may have been noticing over the past couple of years that this blog has become shorter in type and words.

The posts have become more as pictures with short captions as information about the bird pictures and the daily thoughts.

Projects have been put on hold and many things slowed down on my end.

There is a reason for this happening.

I have been diagnosed with Parkinson’s and during the past several years, this disease has been affecting me as the disease has developed. At this time, shaking tremors and stiffness has affected my hands to the point that I am no longer able to type and compose various thoughts to post on my blog as I used to. I have been able to continue, however, these past years through my wife, Sue, who has kindly typed my thoughts and what I wanted to present on my blog. I have also become less able to put complete thoughts together and to remember what I wanted to say.

Thus I am now in a position to have to cut my blog into shorter segments. I can no longer answer the vast amount of emails I receive or all the pictures I have been doing in color and working with. My hands no longer let me access all of the detailed work I am requested to complete.

I thank you for all of your past communication and thank you for all your support.

Other than that, the journey goes on…
