Looking Back at Life
I just celebrated my 95th birthday last week. Honestly, I never thought I would make it this far in life…in fact, I figured I would have passed away many years ago. But here I still was, feeling good, still relatively active, having what I would consider to be a pretty good life.

Dementia
I am having a hard day myself, just don't want to open my eyes to do today's tasks. That isn't fair to everyone in the house or me. My daughter just got over being sick with the flu. Thank goodness it wasn't Covid, but he wasn't able to help me around the house. I was doing everything as far as chores in the house by myself. Now, I don't want to come across as whining, but I'm just exhausted. Yesterday, was another day when my stepdad had to go to the post office. I had to keep telling him, my daughter was sick, and we weren't going anywhere until the next day. He finally understood. He is a lot better than before. Now we have learned to communicate better, but we still have bad days. Routines is very important to someone who has dementia.

Mostly, this declination process may start during the middle age when the body functioning reaches a peak limit, but there is no specific limitation of the time of its commencement as various other factors determine it including the external and internal factors. These external and internal factors not only play role in the susceptibility to death but limit the normal body functions and they lead to the onset of various diseases.
