Oh wow! We are never ready for that kind of tumult. Reach out to us when you are ready. Don't try to handle the mental boulder all by yourself. We have two ears and two shoulders.
Been thru this same thing twice, last time was just about 8 years back. This is where good home insurance is a plus. We got everything covered by insurance but it took over 18 months with the final payment two years after the tornado !!
At 52yrs old, I thought I had a pretty good handle on things. A Veteran, over 22 years law enforcement/government work, I thought I'd seen and experienced it "all".
This however, I am totally and emotionally drained.
In January, after 4 long years of assisting my younger brother with health issues, I lost him to renal failure/cancer. March, I discovered my wife of 17 years had been having an affair on and off for the past 12 years. Then to boot, this past week, I had to put down my best girl. My K9 partner of 8 yrs... Now a gosh darn Tornado!? (Sure does have an the earmarks of a good country song!)
If you're biblical, I feel like "Job" right about now. Holding on to faith that this is happening for a reason...
In the meantime, if at all possible, any assistance is warmly welcomed.
