Brian Carling (AF4K Crystals) Situation.
On April 4, Brian was taken to the emergency room thinking he may have had a
minor stroke, since he was encountering some difficulties. By 7am the next
morning, he had undergone brain surgery with a very grim prognosis of a non
operative stage 4 GBA tumor. Due to complications, we will not be able to
operate business as usual with AF4K CRYSTALS. We will not be taking any more
orders personally, but the family would like to assist in helping those who
have outstanding orders who have had difficulties contacting us or have not
had orders fulfilled. We apologize for any inconvenience. If there is anyone
who have not received their merchandise, please contact Brian's XYL. The
best effort will be made to remedy the situation as soon as possible.

Crystals domain and inventory. For many years Brian and Marie have enjoyed
running the business and it would be a gift to both to know it would
continue to provide for others.
Thank you for your patience and understanding.

When Brian came home from the hospital, he tried to work his business but
all his access and passwords were lost and Marie is doing the very best she
can to help people fill their requests / refund money sent as well as take
care of Bry. PayPal has not been helpful with this process. I am posting
this news in various places to alert customers / friends of the dilemma and
provide a path for resolution. Please keep them in your thoughts and
prayers.
