I'm 72 and I say "ditto" to everything mentioned in the article but I've been thinking that way since I was in my 40's. I've always been an "old soul." LOL!

You'll be fine.

I'm 72 and I haven't been happier in my life. Everyday has been a holiday since I retired 16 years ago.

Age is NOT just a # but,as you've noted, you can't do anything about it.

So, just enjoy life to the fullest! 😎

Regular use of the Internet linked to reduced risk of dementia in seniors.

I knew there was a least 1 good reason for me to troll the Internet daily. 🙂

"After an 80-year-old janitor had to return to work after his was increased, Texas high school students raised more than $250,000 to help him retire."

I'm glad The Guardian didn't just position this as feel-good story, but also went on to talk about how many seniors are forced to work well past a normal retirement age.

Je regrette vraiment le rejet par les différents groupes d'opposition de l' proposé par le Gvt et la majorité présidentielle dans le . Il s'agit d'un 1er outil pour renforcer l'emploi des dans notre pays, et il était demandé par les syndicats!

@marcprecipice We agree, such stereotypes are inaccurate. See "Why stop now? Perennials biking County" for photos of visiting and local aka elders aka who bike. bikemonterey.org/perennials-bi

BTW, love how allows editing a post—e.g., when we forgot to include a link to the Bicycling Monterey article and photos we were referring to, we could edit to add the link here so people didn't have to search for it. Thank you, Mastodon.

I went thru this w/my mother, who died at 101, b4 I had to put her in at 90.

There are lifts for stairs bit not to pick someone up off the floor.

If the person does not have the strength to pick him/herself up, someone has to do it for him/her to put him/her in a wheelchair or in bed.

If you don't have the strength to do it and/or cannot always be there, then you need to find someone who can.

That's why I had to put my other in asst living.

Good luck!

I was born in the Year of the Tiger (1950) & my GF was born in the Year of the Rabbit (1951).

Not an ideal match horoscope-wise but it's said that it can work. Hopefully, it will.

It's no fun dating any any age but particulay not when you're +70.

"Who Will Care For 'Kinless' Seniors?"

“We assume that everyone has at least some family, but that’s not the case anymore.”

This is a potential "problem" for me and many others of my generation that should not be ignored by those in this situation and by society at large.
