[QUOTE="inyati13, post: 1052988, member: 17767"] I retired and got into cows on my farm almost as an accident. I never thought I would become so attached to them. I am a good target for the saying, "Ron, get a life." Because my cows and farm (dog too) are my life. If it is dysfunctional, it is what it is. But I have built a bridge than someday I will have to cross and I worry about how I will do that. I have raised some of my young cows and heifers from calves. I have a deep anxiety about becoming too old or disabled to care for them. I have no one in mind that I could trust their care to. All they have ever known is having their needs met and scratches and rubs in the places each one likes. This was not something I ever thought was going to happen to me. It reminds me of a Tom T Hall song about who is going to care for my hogs. Does anyone remember that song? [/QUOTE]
