You are included in my morning prayer walk sir. Please keep fighting. You are loved and appreciated by so many. Thanks for the update brother. Your Humble members are pulling hard for you!
I was going to be a ROCK STAR....that worked out really well, LOL. I have been fortunate enough to become a semi pro musician, regularly getting paid gigs. BUT never enough to quit my day job. I went to Nashville early on to try to get some studio work, but quickly realized how good those guys were and hung my head and came back to Georgia. But, I am playing this month 6/20 at a beautiful setting called West Milford Farms in Cumming, GA. Paid gig with PA and sound guys provided. Ahhhh just have to take my own gear. They do the rest. Love those lazy gigs! LOL
My wife is a geriatric care manager specializing in dementia. Families come to her to help them navigate the wide array of AL options as well as memory care. Not only that, but being an advocate for their loved one and keeping up with medical appointments, med lists, taking them to their doctor appts and keeping notes from each visit. Her mantra is "you just be the child or spouse, let me handle the rest". I'm not saying it is cheap by any reason, but it removes a huge weight from some, especially when parents and their children are in different locations.
Let's see...at 62. Ladders, changing bulbs in these new fangled LED lights using that stupid suction cup thingy, ugh! Anything delicate that requires throwing on readers and straining to see. Mouse print on expiration dates. Splitting wood is no longer a great way to "just get some exercise" lol. And finally stairs. My knees bark at me every step. Gotta look for a single level ranch sooner than later!

I tell my kids this all the time, and urge them to give back / pay forward whenever possible. I have seen desperate poverty, and it is horrendous.

Yup, tried Nashville as a drummer. Found out quickly those studio guys are incredible. Tons of competition. Fled back to Georgia, LOL.
