First, my heart goes out to all who have had troubled times. Whether it be an ailment or a loss, it's a drain on the soul. I have felt the pain myself. Second, when I took our ferrets' home out for fall cleaning and started the Bissel to clean the carpet under where their cage had been they came to check it out. When I was done with one area I looked behind me to step back and found a pile of wrappers (that I know were not there before!) at my feet. Well I guess they thought their hiding spots needed a fall cleaning too. Smart & tidy little buggers aren't they?
