Lol, Helen, wait’ll you get to MY age! (Sorry) Great piece. If you ask a hundred people what it’s like to get old you’ll get a hundred different answers. It’s like asking a young person what it’s like to be young. They don’t know, either, but they’ll try to be polite with someone asking a dumb question. They’ll work at answering it and nobody will be satisfied.

Still, we’re all fascinated by advanced age. As I’ve said before, other than not dying beforehand, I had nothing to do with it.
