we bought a home in Raleigh, NC. We have been here for 16 years now. We have 2 grandchildren, a grandson 15 and a granddaughter 13. We live close to our daughter and son in law and grandchildren. We do things with them as often as possible. Harry and I both are retired and loving it. Harry found out in 2013 that he has lung cancer (both lungs) that can't be operated on. He went thru several months of chemo therapy.(all but killed him) 2 different times he wasn't expected to leave the hospital. However, prayer works!! For the last 5 months he has been on a chemo pill and he is out of the wheel chair, off oxygen and has been able for us to do some traveling lately.
