Just some sharing after my dad died. About dressing elderly.
For several years, my dad had slowly gone downhill. At age 89, was still driving, then fell, and had gone downhill, A once strong person now too frail to even feed his face. he died last night, at 95. I see myself in him, and i dod not think i will last that long. I see, that I had better enjoy life some now, and dress up, while i have the health to do so, also my bicycling, fishing, driving, shooting basketballs. How time flies by. I got here six years ago to help my dad, and it seems like just three yrs! And now he is gone! Time does seem to go faster as we age. I can see , that when i am in the shape he has been in the last four years, there would be no way i could dress myself, or walk. Very sobering, but i will be like him all too soon. Enjoy dressing much, and everything else, because we are soon elderly. Just sharing. Thanks.
