Ok so hes 33 and not really a baby anymore. I swear he got into the car, but he said he was just putting his stuff in there then took the scooter back into the store that Bob had used. He called me before I got out of the parking lot. He had come down to San Antonio to help me drive back to Minnesota. We stopped at Kaw Lake in Northern Oklahoma to recouperate and re-energize. Its so quiet and peaceful out there. But it was getting too hot so we only stayed 2 days.

We are now in Faribault, MN at Camp Faribo, and this is where we will stay. Bob cannot do anymore traveling. Hes not doing well so we got his hospice services transferred up here and came back to Minnesota so we would have our friends and family around. I think I will continue to travel after he dies, but I dont know. I may change my mind. Ive thought I was prepared for this for a long time, but now Im not so sure. Im still not sure where I would want to settle if I did decide to settle. I just cant picture myself living in a sticks and bricks house anymore.

There are some things in life that we can?t prepare for no matter how hard we try. Be comforted in the fact that your husband knows how much he is loved and cared for. From reading your posts it sounds like you and your husband have had an exciting life traveling the country. Just know that your forum family is thinking of you.
 
It's not something you ever can be prepared for. Death sucks, all my best to you and prayers for your husband for a peaceful end. Don't be in a hurry to do anything. Allow God and time to do some healing, and let the Lord pave the way for your bright future. Best wishes.
 
Could be worse (Jeff Daniels The Recreational Vehicle) he got several miles down the road :)

Glad you "Found" him in time.

Back in the old old old days I worked AT (not for) a K-Mart. Security called the police cause they had just picked up a shoplifter. The dispatcher said "The last one has not even gotten back yet.. The security said "I know, he has not made it out of the PARKING LOT yet.

He had spotted the shoplifter while escorting his last client out to the patrol car with the aid of the officer  Put him in the back seat, turned around and nabbed his next client.

That was one top rated security officer.
 
Carly, you and Bob seem to have been having a great time despite the  challenges. You both have a great sense of humour and that must have helped you so much.

You have done the right thing being closer to friends and family to support you both through this time.  I don't think you can ever really prepare for the loss of someone you love and have spent so much time with.

Thinking of you both and the family. Take care of yourself and know we are here if you need us x
 
Sorry to hear this. May the Lord provide you both peace and comfort as you ?travel? this season of life and what may come next for you going forward. As others have said, no matter how much you try to prepare yourself, it can still be difficult. It sounds like you have both shared many adventures with each other that will give you the sole confidence that you need....knowing you are strong enough to still find new adventures yourself if you so choose to. You are not alone and have many here to encourage you. Take care and cherish any blessed days you still have together.
 
Caryl, I am sorry to hear this. You and Bob can do all the preparing possible, but it still is never enough. Blessing and peace be with you both. Please keep checking in to let us know how things are going.
 
Sending prayers your way Carly and Bob. You can't prepare yourself for what is happening to you Carly, you know it's gong to happen but you won't be prepared for when it does. I thought I was prepared for it when my wife passed last year, I am still devastated from her passing. Being closer to family and old friends will help. I try and stay as busy as I can, but can only do so much health wise. The Lord will help you through this I'm sure of it. 
 
Thanks everyone. It really is better now that we are up here in Minnesota where our friends and family are. Bob had a good time when we've gotten together with them, though it wore him out. He had two hospice women out yesterday. As soon as they left, he went to bed. He had another friend come to visit today on her motorcycle, and he was exhausted after she left. Ive been teasing him about not being able to handle his women anymore. :D
