I SO understand what your going through! When My van was stolen with all of the thngs that I was atempting to build a new carere out of, it was the posable wors shock and devestation. I literyl had Thousands of dolars of things in there, all the things that If i were to run away from home I would take, I would have had in there, from my favort boots, (ony boots that ever fit) to a masage table, Oh dear. things thatI could not replace. Books, stones, My alter, Had just come from one event, had not unpacked from the war, had been to a con, had cleaned out my office at the hotline, and was about to go to a new con, and to NY to take my Reflexology Bords, had all of my documentation in the van, ever thing that I needed Dam. Getting upset thinking about it. I had insurance cover it, but it jus twas heart breaking and devestation that some one would do this, and that most of the thing in the van had been tosed into a dmupster. And this done by partys that I knew.
Stil heart sick about some of the things, understand the lost of the instrument that you never got to play, it is like a still born child. If there is any thing that I can do, let me know.
I count myself lucky that I didn't lose any guitars -- as bad as this has been, losing the guitar I learned on (yes, it's one of the ones I play on stage) would've been even worse. Last week I could hear that other people had been through worse, but wasn't ready to process that when I heard it. Now I'm getting a little perspective. A little.
As someone else wrote to me in email, an event like this leaves scars.
I'm not very good at figuring out what to ask for when people offer "if there's anything they can do" help ... and even though the offer's out there, I have trouble following through because I'm not good at asking for help. But I'm working on dealing with those issues, and I'll try to remember to ask when I know what I'm asking for. Thanks.
Stolen life.
