Aging is an inescapable part of life, something we celebrate when we are young and intent on achieving all those milestones – 16 and driving! 18 and voting! 21 and drinking! – but that becomes more sobering as the milestones are fewer and perhaps grimmer. This book addresses, from the point of view and personal experience of a 65-year-old baby boomer with a bad hip, how we got here, how we carry on our journey with grace and humor, and where we are going next.
It’s perfect - a dialog with the reader about aging. You will see yourself in this book. And you will find yourself thinking about it throughout the day. Not a self help book more of a self reflection as you read kind of book. Full disclosure- I’m married to the author.
I enjoyed reading this book on aging in a book club at church. Wo found may things in common with the author and had good discussions, I recommend this book for group discussion!
