Ivan - Please send me a video - the money order is in the mail as we speak.
My mailing address is in the note accompanying the money order. Thank you
very much.
   On a personal note, I wish I could help you re: Mike. Mother sounds very
controlling. If I were closer i could do more. I'm so sorry.  Linda
