Seems like its happening more and more as the years fly by. When I was 65, & beginning to think about retiring, which it took me another 21 months to do, I had no expectation of still being here 17+ years later and in fairly good mental health. (I think) But not so good physically, scoliosis has crept up on me, combined with collapsing disks, so I'm about 5 to 6" shorter than I was at 25. But we've found a pill that helps with the sciatic pain, so I can keep on keep'in on most of the time. I'm ok, as long as I can do it at "my" speed. :) > On 5/30/2017 1:56 AM, Gene Heskett wrote: > > Short term memory is getting worse > > all the time.
