Johnson, Rosemarie (Rhie) - Do Not Go Gently, February 8, 1995
Paper description
The subject of Aging: Aging has changed since our great grandmothers' era. The author explores how to prepare for the probable 30 year process (what to avoid, what to expect. She comments on parenthood (forever on alert). While sorry, some changes will steam up the bifocals with annoyance and disgust with the younger generations - like computers, pushy young and scantily dressed women. Expect memory loss, wrinkles, fitness centers, sharing space and chores with retired husbands, the single life after the death of a spouse. In the end - a sense of joy in life.
