Default There goes my dream

We retired a few years ago, moved out by the lake. Got an RV and planned on traveling around the USA seeing the sights. The worlds largest ball of twine. The biggest frying pan. DollyWood, Hershey park, and so on. The RV was upgraded and we put tons of extras in her. DH drove her home from the dealer. He was white knuckled and terrified the whole ride!

It has sat in the driveway for the last 6 years. We found out I have MS about a week after pulling her home, and DH has used that as an excuse to not take the RV anywhere. now, i know 99% of what he is talking about is that HE is terrified to pull it. He speaks all the time about what if. What if we get to VA and you get sick? What if we get to Ohio and you have a flare? What if we are in the blue ridge mountains and you go blind again? So, for 6 years it has sat in the driveway. never been used.

My son just started working at a place that sells trailers, campers, and the like. His boss offered to sell it on consignment and take very little profit for himself. After 3 years of it sitting in the driveway with a for sale sign on it, we decided to let it go to the lot and let the big boys sell her.

it just broke my heart as it pulled out of the driveway. I remembered the day we went to pick it up how excited I was and how much I love that thing. How much can MS take? yes, I know its a lot to do with DHs attitude and worry, but I couldnt get him over the hump. So...its gone. my dream died. MS killed it.

Thanks for letting me vent.
