News from Florida

I've sure gotten old!

I have outlived my feet and my teeth.

I've had two bypass surgeries, a hip replacement, new knees, fought prostate cancer and diabetes.

I'm half blind.

I can't hear anything quieter than a jet engine, I take 40 different medications that make me dizzy, winded, and subject to blackouts.

I have bouts with dementia.

I have poor circulation; I hardly feel my hands and feet anymore.

I can’t remember if I'm 85 or 92.

I have lost all my friends.

But, thank God, I still have my driver's license.

I know that you mean this as a joke being that it's in the joke section, but sadly it's true. I know of more than one person at 90 who have had their drivers license renewed for many years, more years than they will live.
