Yesterday....I have a hard time climbing and crawling around these days due to an arthritic hip and instability in my feet/ankles/legs due to congenital deformities I was born with but have gotten worse as I've gotten older. I was going to go up on the porch roof to clean the gutters and trim some tree branches that had grown over onto the roof. When I started up the ladder I could feel that my ankles and legs were not stabilizing, and the ladder was sort of flimsy which made me fearful that I'd get half way up it, lose balance and fall. My wife (bless her heart) went up in spite of her possibility to become dizzy and cleaned those gutters and trimmed those branches. I stayed right there with her the whole time and helped her what I could. But she did that for me...she is such a special person and a real trooper. I love, admire, and appreciate her so much!🤗
