    This woman is inspiring and incredible. I think her happiness with the life she's living might be better medicine than constant doctor visits. I hope so, and send my best wishes for her continued happiness.

    I LOVE what she says about "Being grateful for what you have (your home on wheels) and NOT compare to others, but concentrate on what you have and what you can do in yours." That really speaks to me. Thank you, Bob, for another great VIDEO! Her video is my favorite now.

    When I turned 50 it hit me that I had limited days left and was not happy with life the way it was. I’m looking for my van right now and hope to be on the road this year, at least short trips❤Bless you Sky❤

      Yes , live your life now. One year ago today, a dear friend and co-worker of mine passed away at age 66. He had collected Social Security for 4 months! He never got to enjoy a well lived retirement.

    For decades I've said that when there's a natural disaster it's the carnies you should send in with the Red Cross. Carnies can set up an entire village w/water and potties in a couple of hours, and when they're gone they leave no trace! Thanks for the video.

      @donwyates ปีที่แล้ว +8

      I think there are many positive aspects to taking a child's attention away from a trauma, as well. For adults too, it's good to "lighten" someone's load, if only for a while. It could make all the difference.

    • @Fulltimervgal
      @Fulltimervgal ปีที่แล้ว +8

      ​@@donwyates I so agree. The circus is a fantasy for a couple hours, and we work very hard to make that fantasy come true, if only for a short time. ❤❤❤️

    Sky is one of my favorite Nomads. She friended me at a time when I was trying to figure out my life as a newbie widow 😢 she’s a good listener, loved looking at her photo albums and her career as a Circus Clown 🤡. She’s definitely a good soul to be around ❤

    We love you Sky! You are so brave! You showed where your pads are and your cpap too. We're both on a cpap and didn't know how we would keep both cpaps running all night. So we learned that we need to get solar and a bluetti. We also need to get a fridge/cooler for our insulin. Thank you Sky and Bob for showing that we can do this too! ❤

My mom had colon cancer in her 80s and after surgery she lived to her 90’s and we didn’t go to cancer doctors or no treatment and was best for us. She did not die from cancer but did live til 93 and died from Alzheimer’s. But now in heaven happy as can be. Take care and God will be with you too. ❤️👌🙏

    I agree with you in being a person as I am a caregiver. I choose not to sit in a doctor's office with my illness. I've had to fire my long time family physician to get someone who listens to my wants and needs.
    His compassion bedside manners far exceed his loving understanding. There is no comparison to my gratitude to have his help to care for me how I want this to look and be.
    Love your story Skye, thank you Bob for your invitation to great guest and they're content.
