    It feels horrible. I know. I feel your pain. You won't get much insurance for it. Early 90's Toyotas and Hondas did not have the sophisticated security found in vehicles these days. For the next car you buy you can install a hidden kill switch or a remote control explosive device to teach them a lesson.

    OH shit, Chris, car is found but mother sick - all I can say is at least you have one less worry but in context the smaller one. Cars, after all, are replaceable. Best wishes to her.

    Got the car back today. The cops had it towed to a lot. Had to pay $240 to get it out. No real damage. The battery was dead, the hydraulics to keep the hood open were broken, and some papers and misc. items were missing.

    This thread took a turn in an unexpected way. Really sorry to hear about your mom @Chris Craig , hope its just a scare and not the real deal.

    Wow. You were penalized $240 for being a victim of theft. The tow companies have quite a comfy racket going with the justice system now days. As soon as everyone got their cut of your hard earned money...case closed. Got the Camry back tho. My mom's '93 is a champ.

    And prayers for your mom, most importantly.

    Sorry to hear about your mother. Hope that it ends like your car theft - an inconvenience only.

    Just went to the doctor with my mother. The initial tests were wrong. I repeat wrong. Further testing has come back clear of cancer. My mother doesn't have cancer. Thank God. The large quantity of antibodies they attributed to multiple cell myeloma are in fact due to her body fighting her psoriatic arthritis.
