Getting Old 1
I've sure gotten old! I've had two bypass surgeries, a hip replacement, new knees, fought prostate cancer and diabetes, I'm half blind, can't hear anything quieter than a jet engine, take 40 different medications that make me dizzy, winded, and subject to blackouts. Have bouts with dementia. Have poor circulation; hardly feel my hands and feet anymore. Can't remember if I'm 85 or 92. Have lost all my friends. But, thank God, I still have my driver's licence.

Getting Old 2
I feel like my body has gotten totally out of shape so I got my doctor's permission to join a fitness club and start exercising. I decided to take an aerobics class for seniors. I bent, twisted, gyrated, jumped up and down, and perspired for an hour. But, by the time I got my leotards on, the class was over.

Getting Old 3
My memory's not as sharp as it used to be. Also, my memory's not as sharp as it used to be.

JOHN 9362.
Loved it.  :D

NOTE: Considering all the failings of point #1 all of this happens to us to encourage us to stop being stubborn and realize that we need help, especially with those leotards.
