Product Description
by Valerie Schultz (Author)
Aging is an inescapable part of life, something we celebrate when we are young and intent on achieving all those milestones - 16 and driving! 18 and voting! 21 and drinking! - but that becomes more sobering as the milestones are fewer and perhaps grimmer. This book addresses, from the point of view and personal experience of a 65-year-old baby boomer with a bad hip, how we got here, how we carry on our journey with grace and humor, and where we are going next.
