About Me

I am a caregiver to my spouse who had a right brain ischemic stroke on February 5th of 2010. We are both 66 years old and loved to travel. My husband is a chemical engineer who had an unplanned retirement from his long time job in 2001. He had been working part time for another company and was getting ready to retire permanently the week he had the stroke. This was not what he planned for his retirement! I was already retired but now I have this new job taking care of my husband 24/7 + all that he is unable to do now. Hopefully, we can get back to traveling again soon.
