My Wife

I read the article and was so touched by it and excited. It really is exciting to listen to someone so honest, funny, intelligent and alive. I would marry him.  The thing about sexuality with people who are older is that they need to turn out the light. That is it. Who cares about the sagging skin. After getting used to each other, then the light can come back on. There is still fire and passion.
I would marry that guy. What bliss to talk with him and how lovely he is. He knows how to love.

I think Mudpuppy is a lot like this guy. I also think it is a great idea for Hops and Mud to meet.Preferably in a grand old hotel somewhere. If they don't have the money we could take up a collection.  And Hops is perfect.  We ALL know that. Perfectly kind and honest and open and brave. Plus she is religious and a bit churchy and I think Mud is probably that way too. Staunch, sterling, reverent and life loving.

I know this is rather bold of me but there is no one going to be flogged.

Please don't take this as advice, it is just a wonderful experiment and a flight of faith and fancy.
On second thought... take it as advice.

Lots of love,
Sea

Hopalong:
Oh, silly Sea....very kind but I was totally joshing.
Trying (ill-advisdedly) to cheer up Bro' Mud.
I'm old enough to be his momma, likely!

But thank you for sharing the silliness.

(Sorry Mud...no offense meant. And I do hope you
read that wonderful article.)

Hops

mudpuppy:
Any new prospect is going to be a good ten years younger than me and will have to pass a thorough and rigorous physical. I can't eliminate the chance of going through that again but I can minimize it. I am joking....well half joking anyway....well a quarter.....

I did read it and sent you a PM Hops.

Mudpuppy,

Goodness.  Next partner is going to be ten years younger.  Just a little heads up on that one. It is not a guarantee of good health. Better to get genetic screening or something like that. Apparently, you can learn a lot though heredity if you are astute enough.
My ex had Porphyria. Looking back it is quite clear what his symptoms meant but it was not diagnosed. He was younger than me. I doubt anyone knew about his father or grandfather who had it too.

I feel very sorry for you, Mud.  Grieving is very hard work. Very tiring, painful and time consuming.  I send you kind thoughts and hope you take time to do nice things for yourself and connect with people who care about you.

Well, since my wife was five years younger than I am now when she was diagnosed, and the docs told us it had started as much as eight years before she was even diagnosed, my head is already elevated, which is why I said;

Just trying to reduce the odds. Can't do any more than that.

Yesterday would have been her birthday. Went up to her grave for a while. Not a good morning, but the afternoon was a little better.
