Hi, I am 68 years old from Brisbane

I am marginally disabled with old back injuries, Fibromyalgia, osteoarthritis and auto-immune diseases which all banded together to make me give up work just before Covid hit. Boy was "retiring" after 50 years of solid work a big wakeup call. Hubby who is 15 years younger than me also can't work due to bad shoulder injury and had neck surgery a couple of years ago which has left him with lasting problems so he is now my carer and I bless him every single day for being with me.
