Awww bless you, that brought a tear to my eye, so sorry you can't continue camping. I really hope you stick around on the forum though, as with your experience I am pretty sure you will be able to offer some brilliant advice to many of us, plus its nice to stick around with like minded people.

Hoping yours and your wifes health improves, take care xxxx

Sorry to hear about your probs Jeff, but you may not need to give up on 'camping' all together. To my mind a lot of what camping about is the surroundings, the campsite, the people etc. not actually staying in a tent.

Lots of sites now are starting to offer 'pods', lodges and ready setup tents so you get the camping experience without the heavy work.

When you feel better maybe try that?
