Most of us who hit our 40s will find our bodies slowing down, accumulating aches, or suffering a new chronic health condition. Even if our health wasn’t great before, middle age is full of reminders that one’s own peak of youthful bloom is over.
Our parents, if they’re still with us, have probably started to need more help. They may come back from doctors’ appointments with complicated diagnoses, and even more complicated prescriptions. They’re a little more tired than they used to be, and they often don’t tell us the half of it, to spare our feelings.
The inevitable decline of the body is difficult to live with, but we put up with it until we can’t. It beats the alternative.
