Thanks.

The worst part is knowing I came so close. He was alive yesterday. The day before. He wasn't decomposed at all...hell, he might have even been alive a few hours ago. It's just so SO difficult to accept that I found him, and now he's gone.

womsterr- We had a water leak behind our washer. The plumber had to open up the wall to reach it. He then found Axel. I literally woke up to- "I found a snake in the wall!" I was so happy.
