Thank you for sharing with us. My heart goes out to you! We are giving you virtual hugs and I wonder if there is someone close to you that understands who can come over and give you a real hug. Is there a close restaurant that could deliver a meal that you could celebrate both could celebrate your special time with a fancy tablecloth and candles?
You are NOT alone and we all have had to give up so much. My husband and I celebrated our 50th Anniversary two summers ago in Alaska and my husband can no longer travel. Yesterday I was frustrated and angry because he was so irritable, slept the entire afternoon; he woke up and wouldn’t speak to me in the evening. Someone told me that if God takes you to it, He will get you through it. But how many years, Lord?

Hi Marilyn:
I like the tablecloth and candles idea. We live in a rural area, so no Door Dash or other delivery services would come out here (if they even exist in our small town). I will work to make a special meal for us, although his will have to be modified to accommodate his dysphagia.
Thanks so much, and I am accepting all the virtual hugs I can get and looking forward to the real ones. 🫂
