[quote=Anonymous]My dad is almost 85 and his mobility is terrible. He uses a walker and barely leaves the house, except for medical appointments (gets driven). He works with a trainer a couple times a week on strength but isn't doing great. He's obese and drinks a ton which doesn't help. He was fit throughout his life, cross country skiing, snowshoeing, tennis, but after my mom died 13 years ago he pretty much gave up. It breaks my heart but if someone doesn't want to do it, you can't make them. [/quote]
