Fiona and I would like to thank each and everyone of you for your insight along the way.

There were many personal challenges for me to overcome in the passed 11 months. I sold personal items that I said I would never part with to fund my most recent two month trip, rings and things for ceremonies.

I did all of this without a job. The insane amount of time and energy I put into finding work when I came home paid off at the last minute and could have been a huge red flag.

I want to especially thank a few people who contributed over and above personally to our aid.
