Hello One and All,

Thank you so much for your support (and pms) and please forgive my tardiness of returning to the thread. It's been a very difficult and anxious time.

Just so you know, I ended up flying to him and and brought him back home. It was in the nick of time ~ you were quite right, sister, he couldn't have managed on his own; I am also grateful for your offer of PMing you directly ~ I will take you up on this.

I'm not navigating this site very well yet, but I please know that I so very much appreciate everyone's input.
