I'd go on that road trip Lyle!

Wow, I'm so sorry all this is happening to you two. I know the feeling about having it pour on you like that. I have been going through a mess of things myself over the past four months or so; I can relate to your pain. Given all you described, I can also see the good that happened in all that: Mom-in-law survived the fall and is recovering well; nothing seem to be permanent. Son-in-law also survived and did what he needed to do to keep himself safe during the incident.

Still, I understand your desire to have a year of nothing happening. I've been wishing and hoping for one of these for several years now myself.

Dam Mike, best wishes to you and yours. I'm glad to hear that you MIL is in good hands and that your SIL is ok. As others have said, it could have been a lot worse.

I do hope that the SOB that stole his car ends up upside-down in a ditch on fire.

Good heavens, you aren't kidding when you say when it rains, it pours. Hopefully the rest of the year gives better fortunes!

Sorry to hear about your troubles Mike. Keep your eye focused on where you want to be in 6 months - that gets me through a lot of troubled times. I hope your family heals and moves on. Best wishes.
Thanks,
John

Troubling news. But...your MIL is getting better. SIL wasn't hurt. You have to look at the positive side to get through the negative. Good luck

Thanks guys! I am looking at the positives as much as I can. I'm the one that holds things together the best so I gotta support the others. Yes it could have been so much worse and I'm very thankful that it wasn't.
