[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For the people ragging on OP for not liking the sedentary lifestyle, I wonder how old you are and how much hands-on elder care you have done on a daily basis. OP, after watching my mom take care of my dad, I think I can appreciate your frustration. When someone aged quickly by their own hand, it forces someone else to prematurely step up and care for them. And guess what -that makes the caregiver age fast. It’s hard on backs, it’s hard on joints, it’s hard on the mind. Maybe OP doesn’t want to watch her golden years get eaten up by someone who couldn’t bother to take care of themselves (let alone anyone else).[/quote] Aged quickly of their own hand. Thank you for the phrase. I’ve been looking for one to describe my mother and all of my complicated feelings on that point.[/quote]
