women live longer than men but some can handle it better than others when they are widowed

I have two on my mind to visit this week, but with covid going round still havent been
I dont get or go to funerals now because everyone it seems does cremations (even christians) and I just dont feel thats right or honoring to God but thats just me.

I dont know if others feel the same or are distrubed by it. I dont want to ask well where is the body when its been burnt up and ground into a million pieces. :-(

We hope....
He's getting some antivirals.

My Father-in-law has been on disability since he got it last time. It destroyed half his lungs and his immune system. (Which is why he was at the rheumatologist)
He was getting closer to being able to get back to work as his O² levels were slowly climbing.

Now that's gone....
Older people are more affected, generally. And that sucks.

I'm not. I never wore one unless a business required it for entry. I'm not "vaccinated" either. Too many side effects and just not worth it to me. I haven't caught it yet (as far as I know anyway), and will weather it if I do.

I refuse to live my life in fear.

My FIL is a year younger than me.
MIL is a year older.

I'm really worried about him. He ain't doing well today....it's hitting him hard again.

I have been to a number of States :) Washington, Oregon, California, Colorado, Illinois, Florida, Nevada, Idaho, Montana, New York. Some of them were just stop-overs, like Miami on my way to Grand Cayman Island, where I was visiting a sister who lived there for five years, and/or Chicago on my way to Denver, where I lived for some months in a log cabin in the foothills known as Indian Hills. The Indian Hills' population (according to the United States Census of 2010) was 1,280. I was there 30 years before that.

I drove down the coast highway from Vancouver to San Francisco, and also drove the same way (at least part of the way) to get to Reno, and then drove through Idaho and Montana on my way from Reno to Calgary; I thought Montana was really very beautiful. Not me driving, but as a passenger in the car :D I have a picture of myself in an Oregon motel while visiting the sand dunes there, displaying a sign saying the water was not safe to drink; I was holding two bottles of wine LOL. And yes, Niagara Falls was a place we visited while I was still living in Ontario :) I also took my daughter there when we were back for a sister's wedding in 2001. We went up the CN Tower the same day :D I was definitely driving then ;)
My time in Colorado was limited to just the airport. I flew from Las Vegas to Denver to catch a connecting flight to Tampa. It was dark and cold. Flight left at midnight after being delayed due to de-icing the wings. This occurred on a Nov 30. After taking off the windows were still iced over so I did not see a single light in Denver or even Colorada for that matter. It was freezing inside that plane. I was given a thin blanket. Still cold. I did not take it off my head until the approach to Tampa. Miserable flight and I love to fly.

I feel exactly the same way.

The vaccine is not really a vaccine as it does not contain a dead virus. It is just a bunch of chemicals that react to the virus and supposedly neutralize. The stuff is poison and doesn't even work that well. It also changes your DNA and, in some cases, weakens your immune system.

Who knows the long-term implications for those that had both shots and the booster(s)? Five years from now 1/2 the population of the US might be facing extremely serious medical issues because of those shots.

My elderly neighbors across the street had both shots and also the booster. A few months later they both caught Covid. The husband died, but he had other issues besides Covid.

Shots are worthless and dangerous. Not for me. Not for my wife either or her daughter.

Wow, so you married young. (Not judging one bit... personally, I don't have a huge problem with that, unless your FIL's 30 :)).

All we can do is pray for his recovery. He should be getting antivirals, things that boost his immune system (vitamins C, D & Zinc have been noted to do good things against Covid), Ivermectin, etc, etc.

nothign wrong with marrying with large age difference.
Heh.

Don't worry, I'm not criticizing anyone for age differences.

The last 10 years I have been most often asked out by guys 15-18 years younger than me -- and I'm a woman.

One of the guys who asked me out a very long time ago had a mom who was only older than me by about 2 years.

@JohnDB -- praying for your in-laws and family. <3

A good friend of mine, diabetic but otherwise healthy and very active, got 'the shot' and then a stroke a month later.

My wife is 17 years younger than me....
But she had her masters degree and her career when we met.

It's not like I robbed the cradle.

Hey, good for you bro! As long as you get along, can relate to each other, etc., then I envy what you have (not just or only the youth, but someone good to come home to every day).

You simply enticed it with a bevy of homemade baked goods. :D:cool::geek:
Actually I hid my talents from her for almost a year. I mentioned them briefly but did not demonstrate them whatsoever. She thought I was full of it and that I really couldn't cook well....

It wasn't until I was preparing to make our wedding cake that my talents began to be used. I had to practice....

And she still didn't really understand what she was seeing and watching.

Italian buttercream is not something that even normal bakers will try....too temperamental and fussy and requiring strict timing and ratios to master. (What our wedding cake was covered in)

Today....here 12 years later. Well, the cats out of the bag now.

And she doesn't care if I have a job or not. She prefers me to be a house husband. But I prefer working. I haven't during the pandemic. (My knee went right at the start) but now with a business partner it looks like I got a career for the next 10-20 years before I retire.

I have been meeting once a week with a "More than Dads " support group in the meantime. ;) where we talk about how we are more than just children's fathers and housekeepers for our wives....
We used to be captains of industry and career holders and money makers. But now we plead with children to eat and do laundry...
