I am sorry to hear this.
In my college days, I originally got into casting so that I could shoot more on my limited budget.
As things progressed over the years I continued because I enjoyed it. Also I can have molds made for bullets that are just not available or do not exist. I have bought into [a dozen or more group buys over on CastBoolits
I would be sad to give up my hobby because health issues forced me to
I understand that maintaining health is a must.
Are there no young family members that you can mentor in the Art of Casting? Perhaps he/she could keep you supplied in projectiles from those last molds
