Some folks just don’t see the connections which is why I consider myself fortunate in many ways that I became sick :-) So pleased you found your dignity and peace and are helping the “youngsters” to see the light. Don’t you think it’s such a shame though that even when folks do see the light, that all the confusion surrounding what is optimal health wise becomes a major obstacle? Curiosity got the better of me and I checked you out in issue 36 of the hacres magazine. You look in great shape! Nice grandkids too :-) Mike Hurray I’m still “young!” Lovely to hear from you Claudia.

I am always refining what I want to be “when I grow up.” I was 63 at the time with no conditions or health issues. As you stated in your article, sometimes we can just “coast” along, seemingly “never sick a day in my life” and them suddenly one thing hits and progresses from health to a debilitating disease to death in a short period of time. I believe most of us have to “pay the piper,” though there are the rare few that live to 100 drinking, smoking, and cursing! I am not a gambler, so I decided to make some choices while I was still able! I lost 50 lbs, began gentle pilates (still am not convinced that sweatin’ and puffin’ is all that necessary), and removed what stress I could from my life. I am a health minister with Hallelujah Acres based out of Shelby, NC, and love to talk to “young” people in their forties and fifties about how they see themselves 10 years down the road. I know that mortality is a given for us all, but I choose each day to live so that hopefully when I pass from here to there, it will be with dignity and peace and a legacy of one who enjoyed life to its fullest.
