I wish Moffitt was closer, then again maybe I don't as my wife thinks I spend way to much time "dwelling on the past" as she puts it. I know she will never understand what this ordeal does to us, at least I pray like hell she won't, but I just feel like we survivors should do as much as we can to help the ones that will follow us.
