Nik,
No offense meant by oldies. I meant it 'categorically' not personally. But, I do wonder, about youngsters (well, younger than 53) having kids and maybe passing on depressive genes. I had my son at 18, so that knowledge was not even in the equation then.My Sweetie has no children, and I don't have any plans to! But, he is the end of his line; the last male of his original family. And, I know women can have kids late in life, but I don't really pursue the issue because (a) I almost died when I was pregnant before and (b) what would he and I create with our diagnoses? God forbid I would pass on a life of desperation or otoh BP2 to an innocent being.
In answer to your question about fun, etc......Well, of course! We were in bed and he had his cowboy hat, chaps, spurs, and boots on when he said it!
Total Lie! He actually had very little on, because he's not from Texas! He is a blue blood from blue grass country.
We do have some fun! He totally understands my bent sense of humor, and tells the most hilarious stories, that sometimes I request them. Like a kid "Tell me about the time...". Even just thinking about the stories makes me laugh (not just smile).
A good thing for me to remember when his/my dark days are present....
"THATS why you're here over your 50 rule" well, maybe you're right. I think it is only kindliness on his part because he knew I was so close to the end. But, he seems to like it here ok.
xoxo
