As long as I have my computer and the Internet and people like you and others here I will be just fine.
I give my life meaning by chatting on sites like this and by searching for the best free software available for the visually impaired which I then post about and tell people how to set up.
So I am content.
Have a great day all!  |
Thank you for keeping us posted here, Ripose, on your status of being, both your physical wellness and state of mind in this regard.
It is good news to hear that you and your wife are calmly communicating with one another in regard to your wishes and your mutual courage in all of this. Your mutual choice to not yet share this with the rest of your family I can well understand and respect. For whatever your reasoning, I am sure that this is a wise choice on your part.
I do hope that you will be around for the long term, Ripose, and feeling well enough to participate in your life and enjoy. It is no small matter you are dealing with and hopefully the supportiveness from this online community will rally round you, as is your stated wish.
Again, thank you for letting us here know.
All the best to you and your family, Ripose.
