I have much empathy for your situation in these most difficult of financial times. Still,since you have worked so hard toward nearing the taming of the monster and have wonderful support at home, i would suggest that you consider another alternative long and hard before letting go of your beloved collection. Obviously, you have handled your financial and family wisely and
astutely and I am sure that you will arrive at the proper decision in due course.
I still must add my favorite dictum to the discussion:
The Monster wants you to quit; don't listen to it.

I recognize full well that in your case, the Monster is one of a number of very,very important voices.

all the best,
Barry
