Sorry to hear this - what an awful thing to have to go through!
Not to detract from your misery, but to put it in perspective, it could be worse:
My boss's son was walking home from work at night through a usually safe neighborhood, when some guy jumped out of an alley and held a gun on him and demanded his wallet. He didn't have any money, so the guy took him to an ATM and made him try to withdraw some huge sum of money that exceeded his bank balance, so the ATM ate his card. The robber took him back down an alley and said "if I can't get anything out of you, you're at least going to give me a blow job." Which he did, at gunpoint.
So, it could be worse. Stuff is only stuff. You'll get it back. The worst part is the feeling of violation and the loss of safety and trust. I hope you get that back, too. Be grateful that your family is unharmed, and be extra loving to each other.
