Oh, Corky, I’m so sorry to hear of your wife’s tragic fall. Hopefully, she will heal quickly and well. I know you will take good care of her. I know what that’s like. My beloved fiancé died of cancer nearly 2 years ago. I took care of her throughout her illness and was devastated to lose her, but the time we spent together during her illness will be remembered as a special time of closeness and warmth. Value any extra time you get to spend together because of this accident. I’m still taking Nancy’s parents to dinner every Monday night. Her father, 96 years old, broke his hip shortly after breaking a bone in his left shoulder, so it’s been a long healing process. Meanwhile, Nancy’s mother, 92 years of age, suffers from arthritis and neuropathy that makes it very difficult for her to walk. They like to get out of the house for dinner and I enjoy their kindness and company. It’s good that I can continue to be a part of their life and help them in their later years. I’ll be getting there too soon myself. Luckily, my siblings are all alive, and Nancy was kind enough to share her extensive family with me. She had two kids, both married, and her son has two children who treat me as their grandfather even though Nancy and I didn’t get married. My own son and his wife are expecting a son in early July, so I have lots to live for and enjoy. Make life good! jak
