I am so, so sorry you have had all of this to deal with. I do hope there is a way to get some justice, not only to help relieve some of the hurt in losing your Mom so tragically, but to perhaps prevent this kind of thing from happening to someone else. Certainly, it's not fair that J lost his job after 35 years with a company but we all know life is not always fair and that you just have to chalk it up to the fact that sometimes "People are just no d*** good�.

Sandy - You are such a caring soul - you have been able to feel others' pain and frustration and place their needs above your own. You've stood by J and placed his needs above your own at a time when it took super human courage and strength to do so. It's time now, for you to give yourself the same compassion you have so generously shared with others and that you so deserve for yourself. I hope that you will take time just for You, and your own needs and that there will be some healing moments of peace for you � and maybe someone close by to give you a hug when you most need it.
