thank you. We were married in Dec 1973. 3 beautiful daughter. 8 grandkids. We had just bought an RV and were planning to see the country. I think there is so much to see without going overseas. All I can say is enjoy. There are no givens in life. Even healthy, as you know, isnt a picnic. I was lucky to be her caretaker. Her journey will end soon. I wish you the best.

Thank you Tucker. My husband and I were married in November, 1972! We have a son and a daughter and a grandson who is 9 years old.
We did some traveling for a couple of years in the Rv. Then I fell and broke my kneecap and had to have surgery. My husband took good care of me. About 12 years ago my husband had spinal surgery for bone spurs, osteoarthritis and numerous back injuries over the years that caused pinched nerves and a lot of pain. The surgery did help with his pinched nerve pain. He has rods and pins in his spine and he still has some pain— there are no guarantees with that kind of surgery. I took care of him before I had PMR, thank god.
I still hope to do a little more traveling, god willing.
Your wife is blessed to have you as her caretaker.
Take care.
