I got 5 years, August 1st, 2019.

We’re in the process of selling our house and buying a 38-foot sail boat. We’ll live on that until then, and then cast off and sail away.

My wife has had breast cancer twice now. We won’t wait any more. Just until we can afford to call it quits.

Besides, why would I want to work myself to death for an extra $500 a month.

Thank you for the reply. And a PERFECT one in that.

To be fortunate enough to set sail is a Godsend and I hope you a blessed and happy life.

My Mother beat breast cancer twice so I know it can be done. I wish you & your wife good luck and will say a prayer for you.

May the wind always be at your back.

Yay you. My mother died from breast cancer and I beat it. It really does give you a new outlook. Things and stuff just aren’t that important anymore.
We have a 40 ft sailboat and I would love to sell the house and take off. Hubby won’t. Me being sick didn’t change his outlook I guess.
