Now for those who care, I have been very distracted by my father in law, who passed out a couple of days after this post, and was diagnosed with a brain tumor, that they suspected was cancer.

After the surgery this last Monday, he has required care and attention by my wife, leaving me the realities of family. I have been busy and focused.

So, if you don't like what I did or didn't do, too bad for you. I wouldn't stay up nights thinking on it, if I were you. Go ahead and stay up nights if you want to. I flat don't care.

I posted in hopes of getting some worthwhile info about this situation, as I have never been in it before. Started hunting in 1983 and have NEVER lost one until now.

My father in law is doing better, but has a long path.

Special thanks to those who sent me a supportive PM. Quite a bunch of understanding people. Too many know it all idiots around here.

I learned very little beyond that.
