Likely many can relate to that kind of 'for some strange reason things going awry'. I hope you get them back. Maybe take time and think about the titles and such and some could be replaced (not quite the same but still keeping the legacy of interests and allowing yourself to start a collection likely many would gladly help you replenish.)
All the best...I had a dream someone had nixed much of their stuff only to find out someone was trying to do just that.
