Luckily we moved to Southern New Mexico a few years ago so don't have many worries about the snow. If it comes, it only lasts a few hours. I always keep my hubby's medication ready for at least a week and carry information in my wallet regarding both our medications. He is never out without me. We are lucky in that our daughter calls (from 3,000 miles away) every night to make sure everything is OK. When i read about others problems and difficulties, I realize I am lucky in that I have a great caregiver time and a daughter, grandson and God son who worries about us and keeps close tabs on us. As you can probably tell, this was a good day and I got out of the house for about 90 minutes tonight with friends. Something I rarely do but it gave me a new outlook =at least for a few days.
