Dude, that is a horrible thing for you and your wife to go through. You wrote that story really well too Tim I must say. Hugs to you guys and I know you'll be the rock your partner needs right now mate. It's great he was able to pull through until you got back to see him.
62 also is not old at all, far from it. Life really sucks sometimes. Thanks for sharing with us mate.
Thanks Kade. I appreciate it.
There was a time when I thought anyone over 50 was ancient. Isn't that so fucked? It couldn't be further from the truth.
I think everyone thinks that way in their younger days. Can't say I've really thought that, but maybe I have, dunno. I've always gotten on much better with people older than me though. Always somewhat struggled relating to people my own age and younger most of the time.
It's funny you mention that though, it makes me think of the kids at work. One had a 21st birthday the other day and was complaining how old they are getting. Another one just turned 24 and was getting stripped down by the others on 'how much of an old man he was turning into and how ancient he is now.' Even he was like 'yeah, sure feeling the age now.' I told him to fuck off haha!
But yeah, lots of love to you guys. Losing someone is hard enough but losing them at that age just seems criminal.
