Hi. I'm GrammieD and I may need to retire soon.
I am only 58 years old, and am not supposed to retire with full benefits until I am 66. If I have to retire sooner it will be because of my health. I have health insurance provided at my work, but of course I will have to go on COBRA when I retire. I am worried about where I will get the money to pay for my insurance at that time. My husband has already retired on disability and we won't have much money coming in until I get disability SSI. I will not be on the computer for a few days as we are going camping starting tomorrow. I will go to one of the other threads when I return to post my questions. Where should I go?

Welcome to the forum GrammieD.
Have fun camping! And when you return, I'd suggest you go to the "Fire and Money" forum and start a new thread to ask your questions.

My camping trip ended Friday due to illness. I ended up in the hospital Sunday night with a temp of 103.5 due to a very bad kidney infection. I was also dehydrated. Anyhow I am back on my feet with all my questions still unasked and therefore unanswered. This is the first day I have felt well enough to sit at the computer. Thanks for being patient.

I'm also sorry to hear of your troubles. Glad you feel better now. There are a lot of smart people here(not me ) so fire away with your questions. Best of luck!
