Welcome aboard, Michael! Keep writing. Keep your mind as active as you can. Try to learn something new as often as you can. Hope to hear from you soon! I'd like to know how the Big A is affecting you at this point. Your writing seems to be good.
God bless you and your wife and family.

As I worked on the railroad, I invested in the stock market since I was 18.
Now, as I turn 62 I have $1,300,000. Once invested in a proper managed account interest and or dividends will pay all expenses for my wife and me living in a home (if necessary) the net at least doubling over the next 28 years so she will be taken care of. I've been very lucky. More later.

Hi, Michael. I'm afraid you may have misinterpreted what I asked when I asked about the Big A...I really meant to say, how is alzheimers (the Big A) affecting your life. Memory loss? etc. I meant what is happening physically to you at this stage of alzheimers. I am really glad to see that you have no financial worries and that your wife will be fine as time goes on. Who knows? Maybe a cure will be found for Alzheimers! Oh, don't we wish!! Thanks. Leah
