$500.00Ann suffered from Parkinson's since 1998. It was controlled with medication. As years passes Ann had a hip and knee replacement. She developed Rheumatoid arthritis that caused her feet to twist and become deformed. She was unable to walk without a walker or use of a wheelchair. Two years ago she fell and broke her leg. The break was so close to the knee replacement that the healing process was difficult. Because of the location of the break the doctor said that she would not be able to support her weight in order for her to stand or walk. He was right. She became bedridden for the last two years of her life. She went to a nursing home for rehab. This was not any easier she developed infections thee different times and an open wound developed which she doctored for three months. She was never able to stand or walk so we brought her home so that we could be together. She remained bedridden until she passed away January 6 2018 .We would have been married for 60 years June 7 2018. She was a wonderful wife and mother who never complained about the pain she must have been in with the many health problems she suffered thru . She never once said WHY ME. Ann was a wonderful wife. I will miss her.I was the luckiest man in the world to be married to her. Her loving husband Eddie
