Part of our devastation is that we realize now that we will need to invest potentially thousands of dollars to increase our security. Insurance will cover some of the damage and theft, but not everything. Even after replacing the damaged property and product, we will also have to pay to get bars on the windows and doors. We had already invested in higher quality doors but the robbers were determined to smash their way through.
It’s not just an issue of money. When something like this happens, it’s easy to feel powerless, hopeless and tempted to give up.
