    the diaper changes..???

    just a word of caution, make sure that if you do..."do it", in a nursing home, that you have plenty of padding on the floor surrounding the bed, cuz falling off your walker is a hip breaking reality.

    There won't ever be an old folks home in my and my wife's future. Every time we read where an old couple is separated it reaffirms our decision that we will die in our own home. We've spent nearly our entire lives together, from horny teenagers to horny middle aged adults. We plan on growing into horny old folks, together. And eventually, god willing, dying together.
     
    buddyd157 Thanks this.

    The docs should have been testing for sperm for three months after the vasectomy.

    I hate that it happened to the guy, but it is sad that a good doctor, who possibly has a perfectly clean past record can be completely shot down financially for the rest of their lives because of one mess up. Doctors work grueling hours especially those in the ER and get grilled if they ever make a mistake. We gripe about high health care cost and how the doctors are making a killing but this is the tight wire rope they walk. One mess up and forget it. We jump all over them suing for all we got.
    Like I said I'm sorry for the guy and I hate that it happened to him. I'm sure the doctor regrets it too and it will bother them the rest of their life. Of course the tremendous debt stacked on top of their guilt will too. I know there are bad doctors that should be weeded out, I just wish we were a bit more thankful for the good doctors who save many lives throughout their career instead of grilling them for one mistake.
