Advantages of full time RVing?

Love Motorhoming but like many also like some "roots". My biggest fear if fulltiming with no "stick" house to return to is what happens when one has a heart attack, cancer strikes, need some type of surgery with several weeks etc recover? I suppose you can do it in a MH but what do most of you full timers do in this scenario? tom

That in part was why I just opted to buy another house after being on the road full time. As mentioned the RV just depreciates day after day. I started thinking about getting older and what would happen if I couldn't get around as well.

If you are full timing and become disabled or health problems that prohibit traveling in an RV the next step is nursing home. I wanted to ensure I had that 'second to last option' where you can stay in your own home and still live independently.

Funny I NEVER thought one iota about these type of things when I first went full time. It was only after meeting RV'ers that were older than me that shared some of their concerns that started me thinking of changing part of my full time experience to ensure I continued to live happily!

And when the time comes for me to pull off the road permanently and I have to do the ole nursing home, I will have a house to sell to pay for it. Selling the MH wouldn't even get me a 2 bit room on the south side of Chicago!!!
