Introduction I am Dutch, married with four adult children and six grandchildren. Next year my husband and I will be forty years married. We both come from 'broken' homes and married without illusions. Now we are really proud of how we worked through some difficult times and we are both very happy in our marriage. Neither my husband and I live in the country of our birth, but we live where we do by choice. I do miss my brothers and sisters and I'm quite homesick at times. I have serious health issues and had an amputation in 2011.
