What concerns you about your future?

As I get older I’m concerned about dying, insurance which we’ll have to buy since I can’t receive Medicare due to not having enough employment under my belt. My Westie died in April and I’m concerned about my other dog who’s getting older.
and now my husband just told me that the doctors we use and hospital they are affiliated with which we’ve had for YEARS might have to change because they may become out of network.

I thought once you're over the age 65 that you get Medicare no matter your work history? Check into it!

Social Security is dependent on how much you earned through the years. I believe you get Medicare anyway, but I could be wrong about that. You will want to check into that.

At nearly 70, it is my health. I have had health issues over the years and it seems like just when things are going great, I get hit with something else.

We did. I was wrong. I can get it but it costs more because I didn’t work long enough. My husband handles all that kind of stuff. Which brings me to another fear about the future. If I outlive my hubby I don’t know how I’ll cope; because of my anxiety disorders he takes care of everything and I’ve become too dependent on him.

Maybe people from church will be around to help you?

That's great!! Maybe that's something my church could do. How often do they meet?
