Oh, Feary!

No one on this website will ever get sick of you or what you say. Everyone here has their own problems and empathizes with others who have theirs, like you. So you can, and should!, keep posting and letting us know how it goes from day to day.

I don't know your age, but I'm a senior citizen myself, with social security and medicare and all the other merit badges. So's my wife, who's even older than I am, and we've been together for 40 years. I've known many, many women who age beautifully, slowly, over the years, each line and crease evidencing more and more wisdom about this life. You've seen pictures of Georgia O'Keefe in her later days? If not, take a look. Talk about beautiful. The older Georgia O'Keefe was beautiful. So were my grandmothers when I was very young. The wisdom of age IS beautiful, and you can't help but learn if you survive very far. I don't know why it is, but aged women are more beautiful than aged men. I think it's something in their eyes. A fuller understanding and acceptance of life. You can do it. You can do it too. Take very good care of yourself, try to calm down, and try to see the value in growing old. It's there if you try to see it. Let's hear from you again and again.
