My grandmother always said that “it is just hell to get old!” Her mind was as sharp as a tack but it was her body that ultimately failed. As I get older I am noticing things about myself that are changing. Some are surprising and some are just down right odd but it is the way the cookie crumbles. I have always thought of myself as a healthy person. I try and eat right and I have never smoked a day in my life. I don’t exercise as much as I should now. I know there are things that I could be doing better and I am working on that.
We all grow older together and as a result things start to happen that we are not always prepared for. A friend in New York is very sick. She had an aneurysm burst and the news is not good. I just think she is simply a fabulous person-so full of life and love and just so much fun. I just think it is unfair that at age 37 this should be happening. My mother recently went through a procedure to repair an aneurysm in her brain. I am certainly thankful that it was caught before any rupture. However, do to the same condition I never got to know my grandfather and my aunt. I love my friends dearly and I know that it is inevitable that situations like this arise. We would all be fools to think that we are invincible. Anything could happen to anyone of us at anytime. I am hopeful that Kellie will pull through and I am hopeful for her husband Ben and all their family and friends.
