Hey Mike,
I’ve been following along silently like I do for most. I just wanted to tell you, you’re going to be ok.

There is the other side for this situation. We just don’t know what it looks like yet, either way, you’re going to be ok.

I just wanted to throw some encouragement towards you, because going through this is like walking up to a rollercoaster you’ve never been on or seen blindfolded and merrily sent on your way.

However, you can find peace in the storm. Is there anything you use to do? Ride a bike, target shooting, motorcycle, skiing, snow mobiles?

What helped me was realizing I was on my own for the first time in like ever. I could paint the walls whatever color I wanted. I could turn my basement into an arcade. I could blast music, make food I wanted.…honestly I got so excited about the arcade that become a must have regardless of the outcome! I also got my motorcycle which became and remains my therapy when I stopped IC.

I do hope in a year or two we’ll see you in the piecing forum if not sooner. I do, but I also just wanted to remind you, even in the lowest of times, and trust me, I’ve been there, you will be ok.
