Is Dan Wheeler returning to the Q this week?

I read somewhere on these forums that Dan Wheeler was coming back to the Q this week. Is that correct?

it's going to be so hard for him, my dad passed and for me going back to work wasn't too bad i only work with about 10 people.. he has alot more plus all the people calling in on the phone lines saying how sorry they are.. much harder when your in the public eye...

So sorry about your lose Denise. I hope they won't have him take calls for awhile. After my Dad passed, I went back to work after a week. It was tough, but being busy and being needed helped me a lot.

When my mother passed, she didn't want a public funeral, so I only had one full day off.

Work was a comfort to me - it took my mind off the loss. Since I was in commissioned sales, I NEEDED to work too - no work, no sales, no paycheck!

I think that work will help Dan a lot.

I thought I read he was taking 6 months off, that sounded like a long time. Maybe it was originally planned that way and then he decided to return to work sooner.

I should check his facebook and see what he's been posting. I hope he's starting to feel better.

Dan made his wife's illness and funeral very public, so I think it will be good for him to get back into the public eye. I don't think Dan would have a problem with phone calls either, some people feel better when others grieve with them.

I felt the same way when my dad died (I was 18 and just graduated from high school).

I really needed to be back at work (until I started college about a month and a half later). I worked with a small crew, and got my hugs and condolences and then asked everyone to not talk about it anymore. It was just easier for me, during those hours, to escape the sadness, and especially the sadness of my mother. There were plenty of hours at home to grieve as we needed, but we needed to do something "normal" and work was it.

I hope that Dan has as smooth a transition back to work as is possible for him at this time.

He is a Wonderful Host, so many of us have experienced his pain, and many of us know that heartache of losing our Loved Ones...WE are here for him and we'll continue to lift him up. He WILL get through this ! His Daughters, and his Grands, will be his best Therapy...Their LOVE will help him during his Journey.

My guess is the Q will not let the callers talk about it, right now.

No he hasn't. You are confusing him with Dan Hughes.

I just flipped on the TV and happened to catch the Dan and Dan intro...

I was shocked to hear him talk about the passing of his wife.

My deepest condolences to Dan and his family.
