Damn bro! Can't win for loosing these days.
I will be keeping you and your family in my prayers. That wreckage probably might feel like an improvement based on what little i know about what all is going on. I lost my dog one day after i left Texas to Sweden... and then lost my dog in Sweden one day after i left back to Texas. I always say it's easy to die but difficult to live. Life goes on for the living... so LIVE! Sorry to hear about Merlin. Forward is the way and take the good memories with you. Make some new good memories when this gets done flinging off the fan blades!
