Oh dear.....

Thanks Lighthouse....I think.......

So hard to be in assisted living at such an early age.

I can't imagine making those decisions so early in a marriage.  Yes to me a marriage of 28 years is
'early' since I've been married 53 years this July.

And we aren't there yet.....assisted living, or anything like it.

But you do what you have to do, of course.  And he wants to stay with his wife, which is honorable.

And yet......when does someone stop being the person you married?  Or knew?  Or, worse yet, who knows who you are?

I don't know.  I hope I don't have to find out.

Hugs,  Elaine
