I had never heard of George before stumbling across this thread some time ago, and I've been home today as most businesses are closed due to the weather.
I spent a good portion of the morning reading George's posts from Sept 2010 thru the end of that year. It nearly pushed ME into the abyss, and I don't mind telling you my eyes dampened more than once. I cannot imagine any father going thru that and coming out the other end the same. The events of his life during that time makes for some of the most depressing reading I have encountered lately. His emotions are raw, real, and out there for the world to see.
God bless you, George. I hope you find peace.
