Well, fingers crossed. As you know, most of them are
DCIS, which just sits there waiting to be taken out.
The more aggressive ones, one just hopes.

Hope it holds, and yes.

Actually that's what I couldn't do exactly. Doing it Jim's
way might run afoul of the county's reading of the will
(which has changed a couple times, with me having to jump
hoops each time); doing it your sensible way would not only
do that but also require Jonathan's consent: as it stands,
he is legally entitled to as much principal as he wants. We
discussed this a couple years ago, and he seemed to be almost
open to the idea (something in particular must have scared
him to get him to that point), but all of a sudden he clammed
up and pretty much denied that he had ever considered
consenting. Whatever, I really don't care at this point.
