Read your post, didn't get back to reply till now. You and your wife are in my prayers. I'll throw out a bone, don't know if it will help or not. Have you checked into hospice? Not just for terminal cases. Dr needs to recomend it and they do whatever they can to help. My Mom is in nursing Home with Alsheimers and they are helping her. In Ill., County has viviting nurses that go to your home and help out. Maybe you have that there and could get some help? Always look forward to your posts, keep it up as long as you can. Chris

My sister had Hospice help when her husband had Prostrate cancer they won't help unless you have less then 6 months to live. But they are really worth it when they do come out.
Anyway thanks a lot for the help.
I'm to rich for any county help because my land is worth a lot they don't care that I'm broke on a small retirement just that I can sell out and have money to blow.

Hi Walt;
Very sorry to read your post, I didnt know that you were unwell. I was amazed because you always seem so cheerfull on your posts and seem to be so active around the farm and custom work.
My wife has suffered from Crohns Disease for 30 years so know what a debilitating disease can do to a family. If your children are able to comfort & help you and your wife then take up their offer, thats worth a lot to have caring family.
Good luck to you, and take good care of each other. Best wishes David

Thanks David,
My family has several bad diseases including Arthritis, Adult diabetes and MS and bum tickers I seem to have been the lucky guy to get all of them.

I feel pretty good today been out driving my tractor around feeding cows and taking care of a few things so I just have to enjoy life until the next attack hits me.

Good attitude Walt. My Dad suffered from depression at a time in his life. My Mom wanted him to sell his cows but he said that some days they were the only reason he would leave the house. The cowman in him wouldn't let the livestock suffer. It's good that you don't sit around waiting for the next attack. Get out and enjoy life while you can.
