    I am 74 and have a wonderful DH and we have been married 54 yrs this Nov. We have 3 DD and 1 DS who is battling cancer right now. We all live here in town so are very close in relationships. I have 1 sister and 3 brothers. 2 brothers live here also and the other sister and brother live in FL> 10 grand kids and 2 great grands. My dad passed away at age 47 and mom passe away nine yrs ago at age 86. She reamarried but her husband passed 2003. I was not close to him. My DH was a foster child so have no recollection of his family or even who they were.

    Son 27, DIL 25, Grandson 5
    Step Daughter 22
    4-legged son(dog) is 3
