Yes Newby, getting older is not the pleasant thing it could be, it often means a general deterioration in health. Take my case, I never imagined even eight or ten years ago that I would end up being tied to a dialysis machine three days a week and barely able to walk. However, this is the nice thing about this forum, it doesn't matter what our physical state, we are all equal, we can all express our views on things and it certainly gives me a great deal of enjoyment conversing with a lot of people who I can consider friends.
Cheers, Nerys

With age we get to retire and hopefully live life with a good prospect of health but there's that age thing.We have a hard time now reading the paper or seeing the screen without glasses. Our hair my be gray receding or gone.Our hearing that's another issue I got lucky if you call industrial hearing loss lucky.I now wear hearing aids supplies through WSIB.
This is just me wanting to talk to people who may have the same or worse problems I find we try and listen and not judge.Hopefully by some posts we get to know each other a little better .
