A recent fall resulting in a broken hip has forced a decision for pensioner Terry - now is the time to part with his cherished antiques. To stay in the house Terry has called home for 40 years comes at a huge cost, and this 90-year-old hopes that cashing in his prized antiques will pay for the care he needs. An RAF veteran, Terry has seen action all over the world and has the medals to show for it, but he now wants a simpler, less cluttered life as he continues to recuperate from his recent hip surgery and recover from the loss of his beloved wife of 60 years.
