My grandfather said "life is what you make it" he was 96 and in a nursing home! Now we are 72 and have been married for 54 years. I just retired after working for 54 years full time, my wife retired in 2002 after working for the USPS for 30 years. I am very lucky with no serious health problems so far. My wife on the other hand has had multiple health problems for several years now. She can't walk very far and we have a scooter for her. She also has to get a shot in her eye once a month for a year. We are hoping to take the motorhome to Texas in between her appointments, so are planning to leave around the 20th of Jan. and return in time for her next shot in Feb. I am happy that she is still willing to go! My advise to anyone is if you can go, do so while you can. You never know what the future will hold, so go for it!!
