How did you handle things like bills, mail, etc.?

Not easy. All remotely and with our savings. Grandson was at the house and he would check the mail, start vehicles, etc. Managed to pay the house off during the ordeal also...

Last flight we took was Sacramento to Richmond for a vacation and visiting family. I've never been so miserable and cramped. Then something happened with my wife and found out she had a stroke on the flight. We ended up in Virginia for 5 months while she was in and out of the hospital.

Wow... I cannot imagine what that was like. I hope she is OK now.

I've been in VA for 71 years now. It used to be a pretty great place to be... not so much anymore.

She's okay but lost some of her personality.... 😞 Some issues with motor skills on her right side.... We were in Yorktown and absolutely loved it. One block from an entryway to the battlefields. So much different than here in California.

Sorry to hear - That would definitely be hard. I hope there would be some semblance of normalcy eventually.

Yep.. I am about 45 miles from Yorktown outside of Richmond. One of the nice thing about where I am is I am 1 hour from the mountains and 1 hour from the beach.

Mainly just a lot of changes. We'll work together on her issues but seems to get better. She was very outgoing and the life of the party before. Now it's hard getting her comfortable around people and doing things. She can't drive anymore which really bothers her also...

I hope things improve and become easier eventually.
