As they say," Gettin old ain't for sissies" and "If you don't use it you loose it." Are operable terms that we too are facing. Linda had a cataract operation 2 years ago after which she went blind in that eye. A Pituitary tumor was discovered pressing on the eye, origin unknown. After brain surgery she has recovered completely. Modern medicine is our friend. Recently kidney stones and melanoma surgery set her back, briefly.
At present we are staying in our TC, in the front yard, whilst some of our family resides in the bricks. Linda is resolute that we will continue the gypsy life as long as possible. I have cut down on some of the maintenance, letting others stroll on the roof etc. Falling could be a rather large set back! At 78 slower is better'n noer.
Hang in there Chet! We have all been very lucky to be able to achieve the independence and joys of TCing. The key, for me has been Linda's willingness to opt for both the open road and the open sea, in leau of permanently porch perching. All ahead a little slower helmsman.....
