getting older is not talked about, so knowing what to expect would be a little bit easyer if there was more information about coping can anyone nelp. THANKS

Hello Rose - I agree with all the comments made. There are some really good groups you can get in touch with. I feel what is important is that you don't dwell on being old. Stop regretting what you wish you had done but haven't. Remember, yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery. And today? Today is a gift. This is why we call it the 'present'. OK - so some days you may feel old. On those days relax and enjoy your quiet time. There will be days you feel great. Take advantage of those days by getting out in the sunshine and enjoying the day. Every day may not be great, but there is something good in every day.
