Absolutely gutted, and completely numb right now. We lost the baby. I have absolutely no clue what to do

My boss came to me today and told me another task was being added to my position. Another task on top of the list I already do that I don't have time nor help in doing. I have officially succumbed to the fact that I have been the captain of a ship, with absolutely no crew. This captain just jumped ship.
I officially stepped down from my position today. My health, my family, and my mental state are more important then work. It pains me to know I failed, but my family has taken a hard hit on the amount of time and stress my job has taken. I'm not fortunate enough to be able to quit, but I'm giving the reigns to someone else and becoming a "staff nurse" instead of a clinical charge nurse.

Our home was burglarized today. Thankfully, the dog is fine and that was my main concern, as I knew everyone else wasn't here. They broke one of the front windows, went through that, then opened the front door. Laptop, my wife's engagement ring, a pair of my nicer cuff links, a necklace my Mom gave me for baptism, all gone.
They also took our passports, which were expired, but now they have our photo and information and I anticipate will try to open credit card accounts, whatever.
Does anyone know how to prevent that from happening or at least put some extra roadblocks to make it more difficult for that to happen? I'm guessing lifelock or something like that but am open to any other suggestions.
Just kind of in shock right now. And am seething. But everyone is fine so that is most important.
If this was part of a school or choir or sports trip and they really needed fundraising, I'd consider it. Not a fan of the impersonal email for soliciting. If this really is just a vacation, I say tough luck.Can I get your opinion...
I received an e-mail from my best friends 16 yr old daughter over the weekend. It was a gofundme.com e-mail via his daughter.
She wants to go to Europe this summer, and is asking for donations.
She has no job.
I ignored the initial request, but then a few days later got an e-mail from her directly (also sent to 6 other people) explaining why she wants to go.
I'm not close with her.
I don't want to donate any money towards her trip.
She doesn't have a job. She's doing horrible in school.
When I was a kid, my hockey team travelled out of the country and we had to work our butts off to raise money.
She got my e-mail address from her dad (along with the other 6 e-mail addresses).
I feel like it's kind of out of line for her to request money for me to pay for her vacation.
I would never let my kids do the same.
I was initially going to just ignore the e-mails.
Then today I was thinking I will say I'll donate $200 if she gets straight A's from here on out.
But, I'm raising my own kids. I don't feel like that's fair. I don't do that for my kids. Why should I do it for someone else's?
Lastly, I was thinking about just donating $20. It's such a small amount in the big picture I feel like they can't help but get the message I don't want to participate in paying for her vacation.
Any input is greatly appreciated.

No joke.This.
It's annoying how easy it is to beg for money now with the internet.
