I echo the sentiments of all concerning your surgery. I do not foresee any issues arising as the technology has improved greatly in that area.

Speaking of technology, I would have to concur with the repair techs, the cost of replacing a motherboard in such a device is not feasible. However, she mentioned that she owned it for just a couple of months. There should have been a manufacturer's warranty on it?

As for moving forward, I and we encourage you to go ahead and start over. Your friends are not lost as Neo stated. Assistance in getting you leveled up is in abundance. Your focus during that peroid should be leveling and not worrying about gifting. If the kindle cannot be replaced, I would highly recommend getting a Samsung tablet and then get a third party warranty on it. My recommendation for that is a company called Square Trade.

Jenn, I know that it is a lot to think about. Take your time and know that whatever decision you come up with, we're all good with it.
