Corrupt CF Card Data Recovered

My husband and I spent a long-awaited two-week vacation in England, taking our trusty Canon PowerShot with us to record our trip.  Our CF card had hundreds of photos that can never be replaced.  We viewed the photos many times with no problem.  But, one day when trying to share a pic with friends, we put the CF card into the reader, and could only view the first few pictures.  We put the card in the camera, and couldn't view any pictures at all.  We found data recovery software on the internet, and were able to recover over 100 photos, but were devastated over the lost remaining photos.  We went to a local photo shop, and were told the lost data could not be recovered.  I'm glad they didn't tell Recoverfab the data couldn't be recovered.  We went back to the internet, and found many positive reviews for Recoverfab in Germany.  I sent an e-mail explaining our dilemma, and promptly got a response saying they thought a recovery was possible.  Two days after receiving my corrupt CF card, the photos have been recovered!  This company has great customer service and did an outstanding job.
