The author, Teresa Brown, who danced at a wedding with her cane.
Old is when your best friend is your landlady’s cat!
Old is not wanting to be dependent, but you can’t take one step without your cane!
Old is trying to keep in touch with friends, and no one answers the phone!
Old is going to mass on a Sunday and not being able to climb the church stairs without assistance!
Old is when your TV’s not working, and you try to read your magazines with a magnifying glass!
Old is when you go to the doctor or the bank and everyone wants to know where your daughter or son is!
Old is when you can’t watch TV, can’t reach your friends, and your closest relatives are too busy to assist!
Old is not remembering what you had for breakfast!
Old is when you’re damn tired of all that “what old is,” but you’re not giving up!
