I am 62 years old and I am semi-retired. I live in Medford, Oregon with a friend of twenty yrs. I am currently battling with pain issues from osteoarthrits. I need hip replacement surgery but I have no health insurance and I am too young for medicare. So, for this and other reasons I will be moving to Ecuador at the end of the year. I still have a lot of living to do and I can't imagine not being able to continue being active.
