OT, my friend Tim here, and he truly is someone I can call a friend after all this, would have sent you over the edge of sanity watching him do his thing back in the day. I think the word Tim even became a verb for awhile around here meaning "to backslide and pressure one's spouse", lol.
Seriously, he is doing GREAT right now, and no matter how it happened, it's wonderful to see, it really is. Couldn't have happened to a better guy!
I will let Tim answer your question but I think I know what he will say.
