Carla,
Glad you're back! I am SO sorry about your losses. I'll be praying for you, if that's ok. I cannot imagine the roller coaster ride you must have been on.
Things have been ok in Ohio. My wife, Laura, is out west with the kids "ranch sitting" with a bunch of horses, dogs, chickens and an iguana. I'm a geographical bachelor for the rest of the summer.
It's good to hear from you again.
Kyle

Hi All,
It's been quite some time since I've posted to the groups. A lot has been going on.
First of all, my husband passed away in September after a protracted illness that we suspect may have been rooted in our toxic mould problem. Ongoing litigation has added possible 'wrongful death' to the suit. The whole matter comes to a conclusion on 7 October, after 6 long years of doing battle.
Our old dog, Mr. Jake aka ratty bratty passed away in November at the age of 16, but not before having a chance to see my husband on the Palliative Care ward at our local hospital. Within 4 days of Mr. Jake's passing, I was found by a new terrier pal; a wee Yorkie (age 5) who hadn't seen life outside a kitchen, tethered to a doorknob. I was the first person he 'interviewed', that he liked straight away, according to the rescue lady. He's free at last and enjoying life here with me.
In January, my father passed away at 85. He had a long career as a medical doctor, and according to one newspaper report from our small rural area, he delivered over 6,000 babies during his practice of general medicine (sub specialties in anaesthesiology, ob-gyn, peds, and geriatric medicine). Busy man!
I'm currently renovating my house to make it safe and easy to get around in now that I'm on my own. To see the first phase (interiors; excludes bedroom and office, as they're being rearranged soon; no view of downstairs (den and spare room) yet, either, as they're catch all's during current undertakings.

Hope you all are well and keeping out of trouble :)
Cheers!
