Windsparrow, I neglected to leave encouraging thoughts for you. I've no doubt whatever you'll work your usual competent magic with your new circumstances. I think you have that kind of touch, even if sometimes you can't believe it yourself. You'll be very good at what you're doing now.

Matt, that's dreadful. Sympathies and condolences to your friend.
I'm so sorry Sail.
