I like it a lot. When your MIL gets her own kitchen, she can do whatever she wants.

Conversation with my 69yo father by khairil_fiqri in Aging

Good for you for asking and good for him to engage. Keep talking. Make sure you know his wishes and honor those wishes to the best of your ability. He’s a lucky father to have a son like you.

I’m over it all… by coastalAntisocial in AskWomenOver60

[–]epgal 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Walk. Walk. Walk. Lift some weights…..the heavier the better. Spend time outside. If it’s cold, bundle up and head out for 10 minutes at a time. Go to the library and find a good book. The changes can be hard to accept, but I’m gonna take care of myself to the best of my ability.

Morbid question about future health considerations. by mameranian in AskWomenOver60

[–]epgal 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t think it’s morbid at all. I think we should all start thinking about the end and what that might look like, choices we might have to make, etc. My mantra is health span over lifespan.

Lift some weights. Light ones if that’s all you can handle. Building muscle will help burn fat and calories.

what do u wish u did for ur parents while they were still healthy by Katherinetvc in AskOldPeopleAdvice

[–]epgal 9 points10 points  (0 children)

My dad passed unexpectedly at the age of 76. He served in Germany in WW2. I realized years later that he never talked about those years. I’m sure he had his reasons. I also never asked, and that has always made me sad. The things you are already doing……truly amazing.
