Lou-

I read your post yesterday and decided not to jump in because all of the other folks were saying a lot of good stuff.

But now I'll add my $.02. I went through a couple of real rough years with depression awhile back and got through it through sheer determination and the support of my family. Family--that's the number one most important thing.

The scecond important thing is keeping busy--don't let there be a lot of "dead time." You seem to be handling that OK.

As far as my present day abilities, I'm older than I used to be--isn't everyone? I'm 67 and now swallow my pride and ask my sons for help when I'm confronted with things that I used to do easily by myself 30 years ago. I've always plowed our driveways in the winter but now my sons show up, put the plow on the Cherokee and take care of it. I could still do it but it's now sort of a "....the torch is passed..." kind of thing. And I'm OK with it. I still have plenty of things to do that I can do myself without help. I'm not an invalid--just a little slower and maybe wiser than I used to be.

I think you are going to be fine. The fact that you recognize the issue and have chosen to air it out indicates that.
