You may have noticed that we eagerly announced Michael Gaelin, a law student in the Netherlands who TMV read and felt was all over the place politically, as our newest co-blogger. He did a few posts, than seemingly vanished.
It’s because soon after joining TMV he got very sick. We believe (and hope) there is no connection (but reading TMV’s own posts will do that to you, as some readers told TMV this weekend). Due to this, some bloggers (including from this site TMV himself and Holly) tried to help him keep his own blog going during his hospitalization.
Read the details HERE.
We’re happy Michael is now out of the hospital. And when he starts posting again at TMV we will consider ourselves lucky, in more ways than one.
