wish you the best of luck (and as little pain as possible) in
solving the issue!
I can say, from my personal (albeit not as dramatic) experience,
that for people fascinated by JSW the subject may be quite an
effective remedy for real-life problems. Not a solution, of course,
but rather an efficient painkiller. Becoming involved (to the point
of obsession) in a JSW project allows you (me, at least) to
concentrate my mind so fully on the subject that I keep thinking
about it all the time and even get irritated when real-life concerns
disturb my JSW-thinking-processes. It has allowed me on various
occasions to actually take my mind off unpleasant subjects and has
given me a lot of much-needed peace of mind.
I hope this might be (or become) your experience at this difficult
time, too, so that your problems do not turn you into a "Manic
Person" :-)
