The “old ” photo of myself  is how I used to be happy, fun, go getter and really enjoyed life….I'm not using AI as I wanted my story to be from my brain, my words so please excuse any Grammatical errors…My first job was at MLP working trimming pineapple talk about hard work which doesn't scareme..After a few years I worked in the Hospitality Industry ( Wailea Marriot , Kea Lani etc..after that I worked forc21 years at United Health Care with one lady Rose Gardener she went thru a lot…Breast Cancer, Open Heart Valve and a stroke which can all be documented…Rehab, PT you can imagine yet I never saw her cry one single time…The Pysical was one thing but the emotional and seeing her determinate and still keep fighting was amazing.. We met 21 years ago and she just passed 5 months ago.. I have been extremely depressed not happy like that stupid golf photo. They would only let me send one but she loved me to give her space and be happy…….soooooooo hope your not bored cause that's just Chapter 1. …just after I was getting Rose on her walker and doing all the bathing.cooking, cleaning and getting her to Dr.Appointments, PT etc etc etc.  I Had a Heart Attack…they did the Angiogram as all 4 arteries were clogged soooooooo Quadruple Bypass..not fun but what surgery is?? Rehabilitation and all the things Rose went thru to have some function in life.. Needless to say trying to get by on Social Security is extremely impossible. I can still drive and g grateful to be Alive but things are not the same without my Soul mate Rose. I have never asked anyone for help but have contributed charity work at Maui College in the Hospitality I& Tourism classes. ALL of the above facts are true and feel free to fact check or call me at 808 279 6226..Survivors Guilt is horrible….if you can get anything therapeutic or healing or my story can inspire or help you in any way please just remember this “Tomorrow is most definitely not granted” Make sure you tell the ones you love EVERYDAY! And always try and make the most of Each & Everyday….Thanks for reading this post and I wish you all a Happy Holliday Season and New Year 2027, All the Best Always.                                                                Sincerely Yours,                                        Ian R.
