I apologize for not responding earlier. It has been a difficult year for me, mostly due to my wife having health issues that although right now are stable, are definitely going to end her life sooner than we had hoped. She has something called systemic scleroderma, which has made it very difficult for blood circulation from heart to lungs and so is on many meds, oxygen and barely able to walk with a walker and needs me there most of the time to help her with daily living.
She also had a stroke that adds to the problems, although a mild one, it affected her emotions (now none) and one side. She is 75 years old, not overweight and had lived quite a healthy life until 2 years ago all this started happening and rapidly additional things came.
However, in our type of life, "stable" is actually very good.
Good Luck Andre, Hope you do well in 2023.
