Can definitely relate to the sinking ship thing, only wish I had been in a situation where I could have made the leap you're getting ready to make...OTOH, being thrown off the Titanic isn't much different from jumping, when you think about it...I wish you the best in what I know is a terrible situation, fingers crossed & all...
