I did not know which community to post this to so I copied where you posted. Was I to copy and paste my post to his page like we do to dailyprompt in freewriters?

The only thing that we have going for us is we have never bought anything on credit, we own our home and our trucks, our only bills are electric, cable and internet, truck ins, property taxes, and we use Tracfone's for our cell service, it costs us 20 dollars each every 3 months, we can get by on our social security which is 1500 a month. I go to a hand surgeon tomorrow and I am hoping he does not say I need surgery, which I doubt because I am sure it is arthritis. My husband is seeing a GI doctor at the end of the month and might need a colonoscopy. These two things worry me because we only have social security and no other health insurance. As long as our health will stay good we can get by.

I really thought I would fish until the end, but it is not looking like I will be able to do this, the last time I went was in November and I came home in tears from the back and hand pain. I was pompano fishing where I used 6 rods and needed to run back and forth around the boat, June 1st trout season starts, and I will use 1 rod but I will need to run crab traps and pigfish traps every day plus fishing, I hope I can still do it.

Thank you @whitneyalexx from a little girl I knew that I wanted to be a fisherman and marry one.
