Just food for thought. I had cancer twice, during which time I was about
to give up everything. I'm here and now have had couple additional years
of great living with very close friends.
The weather has helped tremendously in being better and staying that way.
Now I do understand how down we all can get. But have found out
it's better to stay put until the last person has no choice. Remember,
our kids love us but do have their lives and are busy with work and all.
In reality they don't have much time for us older people even though
they might like to have the time.
Look at weather up north and ask if you would be better off not being able
to get to doctor or hospital without worry of car accident or slipping and
falling and making things even worse for you and your kids.
Main thing is 'Trust in God'.
Good Luck,
