No not dead as I'm still playing a few of my friends plus have both won and lost a few tournaments, but you could say it has had heart problems and someone has just asked if the heart monitor should be turned off.
I send you my best wishes and may this Christmas remind you of wonderful moments you have experienced and lead you on to working towards having many more. Remembering the birth of Jesus reminds us that truth appeared so we might all learn a better way to live.
