Hmmm....lemme see, now...

A.) You can get the lens fixed (if it needs fixing), the hood replaced,
sell the MP to some deserving person, buy a $39.95 P&S, make a pinhole
camera out of the MP body (just drill a hole in the body cap), give up
photography for fishing, take up needlepoint ....

B.) Your wife and child....irreplaceable, of infinite value, worth
everything in the world...

Not a hard one, IMHO....

Tell her you love her!!!

There have been times in the past several years, dear LUGers, when my
return to photography with Leicas, starting with my M6 from Michael
Hintlian, has been a lifesaver for me, giving me some goals, getting me
focused, so to speak.... :-)

And, there have been more times when I would give it all up, in an
instant, for my late wife's presence...

There's not a time I go out shooting that I do not think, "I wish she
were here to see the light coming through those trees, across that
field, on our granddaughter's face....."

Nope, not a hard one at all, for me.
