I intentionally omitted asking about your long term outcome. It is probably in Jane's book, but it has been too long since I read it. Anyway, I chose not to pry and leave it to you.

I am exceedingly happy that things have ultimately turned out OK. I am learning that sometimes we must go through great trials to really appreciate God and receive that comfort that He expects us to pass on to others. We always wish it could just be a bad case of indigestion, but it is never so easy. We also wish that someone else could bear the weight of our suffering. I know that Christ does just that, but he does not simply make it all go away, but instead gives us strength to make it through.
