Happy New Year,
I’m so sorry to hear about the health issues you and your son are dealing with!
But your not really missing much on the traveling front, seeing as it’s still a raging pandemic out there and safer to stay put most likely..
We retired in September and had been planning to travel upon retirement, but just our luck, we timed it to the year of COVID-19! So sadly here we are in the cold and snow of the northeast still!
Both my foster son and my nephew suffer from emotional health issues and I have wondered many times if my foster son was actually bipolar, as his moods can switch on a dime and he can get into depressive cycles, and while not typical manic cycles, he gets ‘carefree’ when he’s feeling “up”. He also has anxiety and trauma which is not unusual for foster care ‘alumni’. So long story short, I can empathize and am so sorry to hear you are having to deal with your sons EH issue in addition to your own news about having to retire from RVing due to Parkinson’s.
Sending positive thoughts and energy and prayers to you and yours and hoping things get better soon and that you all are able to enjoy the slower pace of life with each other during this slow winter season. Hugs to you and your wife and your son. Be safe!

went to the doctor today and learned that I may never be able to drive again. My Parkinson is advanced so that it has impaired my ability to do any multi tasking required to drive. So come to see Sue and I and I will put you up on put RV site in the back yard. I have full hook up Water Sewer and a 30 amp service that can be converted to a 50 amp with the special cord I have. Come and stay as long as you like. I am going to sign off now wishing everyone a blessed day. BE sure to give the fur babies a hug for me and be sure to tell someone you love them.
