I have decided to post what is happening with us even though I have told several of my readers already. Last Thursday Gerry was told that his position as Director of Research and Development was being eliminated. He was then escorted out of the building. He had to make an appointment for after work hours today to come back in with
supervision and get his belongings. Needless to say he was in shock. He was completely blindsided by this. Now after a couple of days, the shock is wearing off. We are taking stock of where we are financially and thinking about what he might want to do. Our family and friends have been so supportive. Great to have at a time like this. It also
has caused us to think about what is really important in life. Gerry and I are so grateful to have each other, our health, family and friends. We do not have to worry that our house will be in foreclosure, like so many people have had happen. Se we are hanging in there. Will keep everyone posted.

What a horrific way to be treated. All our thoughts are with you both.
These things are never easy. But Gerry is incredibly talented and (having actually been through this a few times) I suspect will end up in a better place and happier. Not that it isn't going to be painful though.
I second Stef's sentiments. So sorry it happened and really glad to hear you are coping well.
Sounds like there was a lot rumbling under the surface that perhaps you were not aware of. :(
I'm just now reading this, and I wanted to voice my support for you both. I know I'm a little (well, a lot) late, but I hope things have turned out for the best. Our thoughts are with you!
