Hearted Youtube comments on Elderly Wisdom (@ElderlyWisdom01) channel.

  1. I used to work at a nursing home and I didn’t like the way the system treated any person who is there. I pray that when I get older, I don’t go to a nursing home. It’s not a place to end up living at. It’s a horrible place to live at when you get older.

  2. My father lived to 102, alone, in his own house. He walked to the store every day to buy just one day's worth of groceries. Healthy and strong until the end. :eyes-pink-heart-shape:

  3. I am 93 and live alone in a small 2 bedroom house. I walk everywhere with a walker. I sold my car. I go swimming twice a week. I swim over arm 10 lengths. There is a gym in that building and I go there 3 times a week. Once a week I go to the supermarket. The groceries fit into my walker. Washing goes in the machine. I hang it outside or in the garage. The afternoons are for hobbies. I do a lot of colouring in adult colouring books. I do a lot on my iPad like lectures. I wish all people who are old like me to have peace of mind. We can’t see them but all around us are angels watching over us. We are never alone. Love you all. Christchurch, New Zealand❤️

  4. I'm also 82 and I would rather walk into Death Valley National Park taking my Bible and a canteen of water, walk as far as I could, sit down to read the Psalms and pass away... than go into a nursing home.

  6. I ended up in a nursing home for "rehab" after a car accident. I spent 3 years in 5 different horrible lifestyles!!! The writer is 100% right -- only worse. I finally "broke out of my prison" but would have died there. It's a place that sucks your life out of who you were when before you went in I'm 89 and doing fantastic now! I got my life back and enjoying every hour of every day --PRAISE THE LORD!!!!!!!!😊😊😊

  7. I have been living alone all my life, doing everything for myself. I'm 80 years old. Would not be able to bear sharing a pokey room with a stranger! May GOD have mercy on me.

  8. My late wife went into a nursing home some years ago, while I went into hospital for an operation. The next day I called her, and she told me hadn't had anything to eat, since going there at 2pm the day before. Had to discharge myself, and get her home. When she became bed bound three years ago, I nursed her, fed, changed and washed her. For three years till she passed away 4 weeks ago. Would not let her go in a home.

  9. My husband and I looked into nursing homes. One staff asked us, "what are your hobbies?" I replied, "my husband loves to cook and I love gardening." She replied, "You won't have to do that here." We gave up our house, but moved into a regular apartment where I've covered the balcony with plants and my husband cooked gourmet meals almost until the day he died. This story really hit home!

  10. You just described the last year with my husband. Exactly. I loved him so much, and miss him so much, but I will always be grateful for the 57 years we had together, and the fact that we were together until the very end. I did notice these signs, and as much as I didn't want to think about it at the time, I knew this would be our last year. I made it the best I could for him, caring for him at home, and with his family all around him until the end. I would say this: every time I think of an unpleasant moment of the past year watching all my husband had to go through, I remember the good things I loved about him, the smiles and laughter I used to share with him, and the comfort he brought me in our senior years. Never forget what you used to have!

  13. My mother & father were the best parents any kid could have. They had four children of which I am the youngest. Momma always cooked dinner every night for us. Dad always made sure things were fair, no favoritism. When he gave one kid $20, the other three got $20. I owe my life to my parents. That's why in 2010 I had been driving a semi on the road since 1993 and was always gone weeks or months at a time. When I heard that the doctor told Mom not to lift anything because her back was bad, I quit driving and moved in with them so they could live out their lives in their own home which they had paid for. My other three siblings were not going to do this and I seem to be the only one who remembered how great Mom and Dad was when we were kids. Before I started driving a semi, I drove a city delivery truck, delivering meat to different places. Of which one of them was a nursing home. I delivered there once a week and every time I went there, there were people that came out of their rooms to want to talk with me but I had many stops after their stop and time was short. This was heartbreaking to me as I knew that their families didn't come to see them like they should. I had to quit that job because I couldn't stand it. I asked my boss for a different route and told him why but he wouldn't give me any other routes to run, so I quit. That experience opened my eyes to retirement homes and that's why I gave up my career to see that mom and dad would never have to go there. From 2010 to 2017 I helped them doing domestic chores and other various stuff. Dad lived to be 94 and Mom was 87 when she left this earth. I couldn't get back into driving a semi all they all said I had been gone too long and none of my previous companies would hire me. I was forced to take early retirement and I'm disabled now, living here in their house barely being able to pay the utilities each month with only SS to live on. But you know what? I would go back in time and do it all over again, for them. My parents who I owed my life to. I still miss them.

  15. I am an 80 year old man, and live on my own in "Sheltered Accommodation". I rent my very small one bedroom flat and do my own cooking and cleaning. There are 44 flats in this apartment block and staff are available all week, with emegency phone contact at weekends. When I became ill they visited me everyday offering to bring groceries etc. There is a professional gardener, and also a part time "handyman" who can fix anything in the flat. After hearing about your experience I will definately try to stay here as long as I possibly can ! I have a strong faith in God, attend Church every Sunday, and am not lonely because I have a strong connection to Jesus. No TV ! but reading, and watching lectures on Youtube, and long walks most days.

  16. I am 66, and still working, and living in my own house. Is nothing better than your own space.😊❤️

  17. I trained to become a nursing home administrator but during my internship, I realized that the standard of care was terrible. This video is 100% right. Administration is more concerned with impressing the family, who were made to believe that their “loved one”, would receive 24 hr professional care. This was just to relieve the family’s guilt over placing their mom or dad in the nursing home. Kids should take care of their parents no matter how inconvenient.

  18. I stopped the rest of my 5 siblings putting my Mum into a home, I moved in with her and looked after her, she passed 4 years later, but we had many cherished moments together, love you Mum xx
    436
  19. I'm going to listen to this EVERYDAY, so I will appreciate living in my own space!!

  20. No way i will go in a home. Watching this gave me motivation to do things better.😊

  21. I worked for a few years in a nursing home and it was soul crushing. The worst part is how the workers there didn't seem to care if the elderly were confortable or happy. When I was cleaning their rooms, I talked with some of them but I was asked by my superiors to stop doing that. I finally realised that it was a money racket. More than 2000$ a month for basic services and they charged 10$ to change a light bulb. Most of the room were 10 X 16, just big enough for a bed and a couple furnitures. Not much to show for a lifetime of caring for others. Thanks for the video.

  22. Thanks for the update.93 yrs, old living alone, still driving and doing my own housework. Teaching at a university twice a week, but experiencing some of the symptoms.

  23. I AM SO GLAD I CAME ACROSS THIS! My wife keeps suggesting we move but I resisted, and I'm glad I did. I love the wild birds in our garden, and especially pigeons and doves , who have become good close friends.They give me a sense of purpose and reason to live, few could ever imagine.

  24. Getting older makes you realize how precious every moment is. Cherish your loved ones while you can.

  25. I am going through this! Thank you! God Bless! I a 89, God has blessed me!

  26. Great news😊

  27. Thank you for educating me ! I was thinking that, when the time comes for me, i would go into a nursing home, so as not to burden my two children....BUT , now, thanks to your video, there's NO WAY IN HELL I'LL BE GOING ! I'd have to be in a coma first !!! I'm 85 , alone and been indipendent since childhood ! I truly appreciate your "awakening" ! May God bless you in a very special way !!! 🙏💐🌅
    280
  28. This is soooooo very true, I am 78 and I have been saying this for many years now. I am very glad that this is being said for I have told this same thing to so many different people, some listen and some don't !!!! 👍👍 Good for you --❤

  29. My Mom at the end would nap allot. Her mind was sharp and she loved to putter around the house. It was hard for her due to arthritis but she didn’t like to sit around . She made it to her 100 birthday. The day she passed , she was washing dishes in the sink and was cleaning the vanity and mirror when she went down . My husband found her leaning next to the vanity and thought that she felt dizzy and sat down but she was gone always was a homemaker and took pride in her house. And was active right up to the last breath. She didn’t want to be a burden to us and had the determination to keep moving. She lived with us and our days were filled with laughter and love. She lived with us for over 23 years and it was a blessing
    273
  30. This is very true. Long before 70 I got tired of social obligations & feeling the need to say yes to things I didn't want to do. I got tired of the phone ringing when I just wanted to take a nap or gardening outside when someone calls to gossip or complain. I enjoy music and working outside rather than listening about things I could care less about. I enjoy my own company and reliving moments in my past that bring me joy. I sometimes just speak to God & thank him for being with me through it all. Life is good. ❣❣😁

  31. My father is 101 and is going through this phase, praying his end is peaceful.

  32. I refused to have my Mom go to a nursing home. She had Alzheimers during her last couple of years and she really didn't know the wife and I. But I just couldn't abandon her. When her health finally took a turn for the worse, she had maybe 6 months. We finally relented and placed her in a local hospice and she lasted for about 2 months. The wife and I promised each other that when our time was coming to an end, we would remain at home. I'll be 87 in a couple of months and most people feel I'm in my 70s. They say you are only as old as you think you are, and I still think like I'm 21, but physically I know I'm at least 39.
    243
  33. I worked in a few nursing homes and everything she said is absolutely true I will never go.i would rather stay in my own space and pass on when ever the good lord decides it is time....thank you and take care...❤
    226
  34. I'm 80. I have BMI 23, I sleep well, and I feel healthy and happy all the time. "Didn't think you were that old.", You don't look it", "What's the secret?" are common responses when people find out. Good genes? No, nothing special there. So, for any curious reader, here it is ... At age 22, I ditched sugar. I followed with eating only real food - never "junk". I love exercise, but hate "working out". Why bore myself with the repetitious-ness of it? Instead, I just use our great big, free, exercise machine - the whole world. Walk, run, climb, scorn the lift and use the stairs! Try it yourself - you'll love it as much as I do. Just start easy and work up.
    225
  35. I am now 80 and worked in a Nursing Home. I do not approve of the way people are treated in a nursing home. I lost my licence to practice because I was too vocal about how residents were treated. My experience as a past staff member is the reason I would object to being placed in such a facility.
    223
  36. I am a caregiver here in the US for over 20yrs, Caregiver has a Saying" Nursing Home-End of the Line" what you have said it is exactly & absolutely true.. if you can still manage & take care of yourself, " DO NOT MOVE TO A NURSING HOME or FACILITY" period😢😭

  38. I'm 78. I go to the gym, watch my food. I bought a motorcycle and using it for beach hopping. I couldn't imagine myself in a nursing home more so I've read this article. Thank you.

  39. My father-in-law was put in a nursing home for four years. He was abused. They called us to the hospital. They told us he was been abused when he recovered. I went to his room at the hospital and told him dad I’m bringing you home with me. He cried like a baby. He had dementia. He didn’t understand, but once I got him home with me and my husband and his grandkids And his wife, he died in my arms and took his last breath. That was the happiest time for him, my mother-in-law passed away and my family room. I wasn’t going to put her in a nursing home, my brother is taking care of our mother right now. I pray every day that he won’t put her in a nursing home. I would rather bring her to my house and so I can take care of her. I am against nursing homes. They are very abusive to certain elderly people. My aunt just passed away with brain cancer. The nurse let her fall on the floor, transferring her from the bed to the wheelchair, she had made four reports on this nurse and nothing was done now she is gone. She went through radiation. Radiation took the rest of her brain because she couldn’t remember all due to the trunk slamming on her head please for God sake people think before you give up your life. Nursing homes are good for certain people and some people will agree. I personally don’t agree if the family members are able to take care of you then go to them stay out of nursing homes God love you all, and please be safe🙏🙏🙏💙
    186
  40. You just told my exact story that I am living now for over 4 years. They get you in and take everything you had owned and all of your SS check each month. I’m not happy at all and I’m slowly dying here. Everything you have said is true 💯% out of sight out of mind!! God Bless everyone ❤🙏🙏❤️
    182
  41. 4 thank you. Very informative
    174
  42. Thanks for the videos, I’m 84 had friends but they’re all gone, so I’m lucky to be here! And have good memories, but I’ve never been so happy as what I am now, I love my own company,I’m doing what I want to do, when I want to do it, and loving it, god bless you all.❤
    173
  43. Never ! My husband and I stay very active we don’t eat out we cook all Our own food organic unprocessed foods ! We lift weights do squats and jump on a rebounding trampoline! Stay healthy at all cost to stay independent !

  44. At first, I thought it was just age catching up with him. My father, once full of life, began withdrawing—losing interest in his favorite books and daily walks. His appetite shrank, his once-strong voice grew softer, and he slept more than ever. Then came the confusion, forgetting familiar names and places. His body weakened, and small infections took longer to heal. Looking back, I see now—these were the quiet warnings of his final year. I didn’t want to believe it, but life was gently preparing me for goodbye.
    170
  45. I recognize several of these issues in both myself and wife of 54 years. We are 74 and tend to ignore the fact that we are aging quickly. It is difficult to accept that we might not live forever. Time to get better prepared. Thanks for the wakeup.
    158
  46. Every word you said was soooo true ! 😮 I've tried to rebuild my own , separate life , but it's not easy ! One must understand that it's a must or the "children" will walk all over you, although they don't realize it . Keep your own individuallity....and respect will be yours !
    156
  47. I know of a woman (mid 70s) who, along with 2 other women, moved to the home of one of the women who couldn't financially afford to live alone. They each have a room and share the remainder of the house. They take turns cooking and share the other household duties. She has been there 5 years. Somehow, it works for them. I have not seen her for a long time - it would be interesting to talk to her...
    153
  48. It’s all been said & done! I couldn’t be bothered anymore! Me, myself & I enjoy being home alone. Peace is wonderful!
    153
  49. Thank you...good info. I've been quick at everything all my life and still do everything quickly at 70. I'm guilty of all you spoke of, but getting up too fast is what I notice most...many times feeling dizzy. This is true even when I'm sitting throughout the day. I just jump up and then I'm dizzy...I'm going to become more mindful. Thank you again.

  51. I am going to be 80 shortly. I'm still finishing up my cabin in the mountains. I have built every building on this one+ acres, and I just paid off my mortgage! Even now I don't get many visitors or phone calls. Once in a while I get this crazy idea that life in a nursing home would be a great idea. Thank you for scaring that idea right out of my head! I know that I would up and die prematurely just out of boredom and loneliness. I have plans for things I still want to accomplish, that could keep me busy for at least the next six years! It's as though watching this video has just saved my life. Thank you for making it!
    148
  52. Thank you for this video. It has made me aware of thing's I hadn't thought about. I have a very dear friend that was put in a nursing home thinking it was temporary. His first day there he made the comment the next step is death. He's such a good sweet man. He asked me one day was he gonna have to stay there forever and the tears in my eyes told him what he wanted to know. He said they didn't tell me that when they talked me into this. Hes 86 and has the early signs of dementia. He could stay at home but no one wants to help him. He's a very dear friend of many years. His wife of 62 yrs passed last year and he feels so lost and hopeless and it breaks my heart but there's nothing I can do. I'm not allowed to visit him now because the lady in charge of him knows he trust me more than her so I can't go which is horrible for me and him. People should think long and hard before going in there. Stay at home as long as you can. I'll keep you in my prayers. God be with you 🙏🏻🥰

  53. As you grow older, you begin to understand that time is the most valuable gift. Treasure every moment with your loved ones while you still can. ❤
    142
  54. Give love to all old people, we need it so much
    138
  55. I loved everything you said. I am almost 95 and live alone and love it. I come from a small family and my only child died three years ago. She had no children. The good Lord has blessed me throughout my lifetime and continues to do so.
    135
  56. Nursing home is definitely a place of last resort when your loved ones are unable to take care of you in your advance age. Keep yourself healthy and stay independently is the best option.
    134
  57. Give God thanks for another day❤
    132
  58. OMG What a nightmare. Thank you so much for letting me know how it really is.
    131

    126
  60. And where you gonna go if you don't have enough money to hire somebody to take care of you.if your pension is only $2000 that is not enough
    126
  61. You have confirmed what I’ve been saying for many years… at 76 I’m never going into care…just keep walking.
    114
  62. At 88, my grandma barely ate – we chalked it up to old age, but she passed in half a year. Heed this video!

  63. You're so right. My wife had spine surgery due to cancer and we put her in nursing home. It was hell. No one would check and I started spending then to twelve hours a day on a steel chair next to her for five weeks. No freedom no one real cared like you would expect from other human beings. You earned your wings for this post.❤

  64. I'm 88, my partner is 83, (we just celebrated her birthday). We live a normal active lifestyle. All the activities we did in our 40yrs, we still do.

  65. Being a mom was the most important job of my life. They are the best part of me along with my grandchildren, but here’s one thing I figured out. I’m really not important anymore to them and haven’t been for a long time. I’m working on making changes in my life.
    99
  66. I hear what you are saying. I would like to share my experience. I am turning 80. Moved into a Care Centre 7 years ago. I am single, no children, for me the move has been the best decision I've made. I was diagnosed with Lymphoma 40 years ago and decided to.move to a home with frail care facilities. I've had short periods in the frail care , but was adamant it would only be temporarily back in my bedsitter, needing very little assistance at this stage. I do as much as possible for myself. I've got a chronic back problem and use a walker. In went through a difficult time emotionally in December. It was my decision to go for a brisk walk early in the morning. After 2 DAYS I felt better emotionally and have less pain. For me it is a great relief that I don't have to depend on my family to care for me, they have their own lives to live. My family visits me regularly, even my grand nieces visit/invite me to share the joy their children bring to them they treat my as if I am their granny/great granny. I could not wish for better and am very grateful for God's faithful provision for me.
    99
  67. If I make it to 94 I hope I'm like you!
    95
  68. I agree, I am 75 and have Fibromyalgia and lots of other health problems, I have always been there for all my friends, phone calls etc. but now I am finding that my long time close friends seem to have cut me off, I don’t have the energy to call people anymore, I send them birthday cards, but don’t get one in return. I have carried certain friends thro all their troubled times. I agree with everything you say, I have been thro all that, but now I have decided to let go and concentrate on enjoying the last few years of my life. I feel relief that I am not compelled to make the effort, it is such a relief. Some friendships can be very draining. I love my own space and company. I do have some close friends who really do care. Thank You for affirming that I made the right decision. I am at Peace now. I feel Free. 🤗🙏🕊

  69. I lived in a senior residence at the age of 60 because they took care of my husband who had Parkinson's Disease I went to work 5 days a week and came home for meals. I still continued my group activities. I even took my husband to church and to the theater until he was under hospice care. I moved out when he passed away. I return and do special concerts for the residents.
    88
  70. My 74 yr old husband is going thru the transitioning process. What no one mentions is the caregiver and the guilt, anger sadness and a thousand other emotions. So often the anger comes out as a personal attack when in fact, as a caregiver, it is a result of not being able to take care of the problem. I am very spiritually religious, I’ve been quick to ask what bad thing have I done to deserve all of this? Recently, I’ve become enlightened to the thought of the great things my husband must have done to deserve me making sure he’s ok. Please seek a support group, the people going through what you are experiencing offer no advice. They just hold your hand and say “I know.”
    85
  71. I understand how you feel. I went to the hospital and then from there to a rehab facility. The rehab facility sounds a lot like what you describe. My only saving grace was that I knew my stay was temporary. It made me determined to get back to my old self. Now that I'm home again I make sure to stay active & get up & out even if I don't want to. I just want to age in place gracefully. Thanks for your insights!
    85
  72. I am 73 years old. I don't need help walking; don't need a cane or walker, but I keep a tri-pod cane right next to my bed. I use it when getting out of bed every morning. I steady myself until any dizziness subsides and I get my 'sea legs'. After I am steady and clear headed I proceed without the cane.
    83
  73. I am 84 and live at home by myself. My kids don't visit. I will stay in my home until it becomes impossible. I have freedom to do as I like, eat what I want, etc. This video only reinforced my determination to do so.
    82
  74. I’m 76 and walk 5-6 days a week and if I don’t walk I don’t feel as good. Walking is more than muscle strength building. It engages the cardiovascular system, boost the immune system and the sense of wellbeing. My balance has become much better because of walking. Don’t tell us elderly that balance has nothing to do with leg and hip strength. It does.

  75. Hello, I’m 81 yrs., had to go into a rehab/ Nursing home after 2 hospital stays. Mainly rehab for strengthening. I will attest to every word you said in your video ! It was a total nightmare to me. I’m back in my apt./ alone. My young adults came when I was in patient. But rarely here and I’m 20 minutes from all three. the rehab/nursing. And I’m a retired RN so even worse to accept. Now they are urging me to do again but permanently. I will pass here before I’d consent to that. I still dream on occasion of my stays there. From med errors to broken commodes to exact same meals day after day. Scares me if my mind goes, they will do above, but by then I guess I won’t care. But for now never ever would consent. Sure I’m lonely, better of the two options. Best to anyone thinking about this. Unless absolutely necessary.
    77
  76. My friend has been in a nursing home for 5 years. She's only 74 now. She crys every day. The food is horrible the disrespect is worse. She's so lonely. Now she has cancer .. Very very sad
    77
  77. I hope things are getting a little better. I had a couple of issues I was trying to sort out, you remarks covered it all. I have looked at a facility where everyone. has their own little spartment
    76
  78. Why do they have to make videos that could be 5 minutes why do they have to make it 20. 20 minutes of useless dialogue. Just get to the point. We dont have all day. We are old. We might be dead by the time youre done yappin

  79. I’ll be 71 in 6 months. I work part time evening cleaner. I found that being active I feel better. I feel better and stronger than sitting around in front of the tv all day. I like the comfort of living in my own home. But I know someday I’d be staying with my daughter and her husband when I’m in my 80’s. We all get old and weak the right time. God bless you- yes you. 🙏🏼❤
    73
  80. I have always been a loner, but now, at the age of 73, I feel free of fake friends. I am fine alone or with just a few proven close friends
    72
  81. Thank you for sharing your experience. I will certainly give it serious consideration when the time comes. I am 87 now, my wife is 83, but we’re comparatively in good health and able to care for ourselves without assistance.
    70
  82. I am 84 and was a Matron in a Resthome. My daughter, when the time comes, said she would love for me to live with her. I have accepted her kind offer, but in the meantime I enjoy doing for myself and my own company. I enjoyed my work with the elderly and had an excellent staff of nurses. It is hard to believe, at times, that I am now elderly. I had lovely residents who were a joy to look after 😊

  83. At nearly 96, I'll choose MAID before I go to a nursing home.

  84. I’m 81 and going to 82 soon. Watching this video has given me an insight for what awaits in the horizon and aware of what l never thought of or think about. What an eye opener ! Thank you for the video and the sharing of your experience.
    69
  85. I am a doctor in my 60s, and what you said is correct. I thank you for helping many elderly people with this video, so they can avoid things they should steer clear of.

  86. My Mom lived to 90 and 4 months. Her friends were a very important part of her life. She enjoyed going to church twice a week and the senior citizens center week days.
    67
  87. There's no place like home! This almost happened to me & I fought it with all of the strength I had left. I even escaped a hospice care center far from my home & I am finishing out my years at my home I worked so hard to buy. God Bless my wife by sticking to my side plus all that she does for me! :face-red-heart-shape: We only get one chance at this life, live it properly & be grateful for the folks that Love you.

  88. 4, still watching. I am 90, and have all these bad habits, tomorrow not too late to change.
    65
  89. Hello, this is my first comment, and it feels really comfortable. I wish everyone watching the video happiness and good health!♥
    61
  90. This is me now, just waiting to die. Never thought this would happen to me. However, I still have to cook, clean, pay the bills, take care of myself. The problem is the loss of hope.
    60
  91. At 78, I ditched sugar to sidestep diabetes – this video’s spot on, diet rules past 75!

  92. Technically, you do not need friends at any age. Get a cat and a dog. The best friends you can ever have. Melissa Plessinger

  93. I lost ky husband last year 6 months of sheer hell ..now im not well i have all those symptoms si im putting my things in order now and enjoying every minute xxx god bless us all ❤
    58
  94. This is an important topic that many people tend to overlook. Recognizing these signs early can help families provide better care and emotional support for their elderly loved ones.
    58
  95. I don't agree that this is the right attitude for everyone. Yes, we stop going to all the social events that we did when we were younger, and yes, there are friends that we no longer have things in common with, so we let them go, but when age related health issues, and issues with our sight keep us from doing what we once did, it is a blessing to have friends to talk to and share our lives and thoughts with. How wonderful to have family who still value having us around and time to continue to make memories with. We were not created to be alone. Enjoy those who are in your life.
    58
  96. Very helpful information. I am caring for my 96 year old mother. Sometimes it's really difficult because you just don't understand what is going on.
    57
  97. It's not the way you look. It's about your character and the way you present yourself. Wisdom and intelligence are some of your assets.
    56
  98. Number 1 bad habit to avoid !? Videos like this !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    56
  99. I'm 78, have started my day with a large glass of warm water ever since I spent two weeks in India. Next I do 20 minutes of gymnastics (with the help of an app) at the open window, have another glass of water with fresh lemon juice or apple cider vinegar, have a healthy breakfast (usually porridge with yoghurt and fresh or deep frost fruit ). Most elderly people like me have bags of time, so there's no excuse whatever to give up healthy routines. I don't take pills, aren't vegan, and am enjoying my life after having had a stressful 9 to 9 hard work with two children, one of them disabled. So, ladies and gentlemen, it's never too late to start a new life. Just go for it!

  100. OMG. Saddest thing I’ve heard. I felt that way, when my brother and his wife (executor by default) decided to force my Dad into aged care. When my Mom who was in palliative care passed, I kept dad at my place for 3 days. When I took him back,then went to visit 2 days later, he cried. He told me, they wouldn’t even let me mourn my wife. No, it is get up at a certain time,breakfast,lunch crap dinner then off to bed at 8 pm. He didn’t usually go to sleep till 10 pm. I was on the phone to my Dad one day at 5 pm. A carer came in and demanded he take his tablets NOW. He asked for privacy to talk to his daughter in his own room. She screamed at him, I asked him to let me talk to her. I gave her a piece of my mind,and asked if she’d ever heard of respect for your elders. Next thing he was changed from Low care to high care. He passed in less than 3 months,and I’ve never felt at peace for not fighting harder for his dignity ,his personal space,and not returning in kind all the love my parents gave me as a child. Totally heartbreaking.
    55
  101. I’m the only one left who helps my mom. She is now in a house she rents instead of an assisted living home. I wish there was some way for her to interact with more people. She can’t see well anymore. She gets lonely. But she never wants to go back to the assisted living facility. Thank goodness she has a dog now. And I’m grateful I can see her frequently. I just wish the family knew how much she loves and needs their support. Some day they will be in her position.
    54
  102. That title really caught my attention! It’s a wake-up call that even small habits can impact our health as we age. Definitely taking these tips seriously! 🙏😮
    54
  103. I’m walking more. I have COPD, Chronic bronchitis and I’ve had a stroke, plus my memory has declined. I’m 75 yrs old and I love your videos.
    53
  104. Watching this is actually scaring me because about a year ago I started having trouble walking and now I can’t even climb or descend the stairs, I’m always tired and my digestion is getting worse, I have a ton of medical problems and nothing seems to help. I also saw a video on how dying starts in the legs. So I really believe that it’s the end for me. I’m calling the doctor tomorrow and I’m only 56.
    53
  105. I just discarded so many shoes, toiletries, coats and old clothes. It feels so good.
    53
  106. I am so guilty, the past couple of years I need to minimize. I have been retired for 2 yrs, it took me a long time to give away my medical scrubs, although I had zero plans to reenter the field. Next I held on to business clothes and dresses that I no longer wear, I had a hard time parting with that pretty garment ..it is never going to be useful hanging in my closet gathering dust. My biggest purge was my engagement ring , I have been divorced for a while but I kept that ring until I had the opportunity to pass it on. I have always ❤ thrift shopping but I don't buy unnecessary items anymore. And I have all kinds of paperwork that I am afraid to even start on, old awards, resumes, divorce paperwork, I am a work in progress
    53
  107. Such an interesting and insightful perspective! This video helps people realize that happiness after 70 doesn’t necessarily depend on the number of friends but rather on independence and inner peace. Thank you for sharing these valuable thoughts! ❤
    53
  108. I am 90 and just started doing this this was a blessing to me
    52
  109. 3:05 I never thought I would feel so invisible. Moving into a nursing home was supposed to provide care and companionship, but instead, I feel forgotten. The world outside moves on, and even my own family seems to visit less and less. It’s heartbreaking to realize that out of sight truly means out of mind.
    52
  110. Thank you very much for sharing this with me 🙏🙏 i am 76 and all these symptoms, is what I'm going through 😢 may God bless you 🙏
    51
  111. One complaint. Do not rely on digital. If important do keep hard copy

  112. I live in a Nursing Home. I’m grateful for the care and good food which I receive. My iPad is my most precious possession, it keeps me in touch with my friends and the outside world.

  115. I own an assisted living facility. Every state is different, but I would recommend shopping around and ensuring that all of your concerns are addressed before you move. Our facility is small, so we cater to people who prefer a more home-like environment. Our clients have complete control over their daily lives, including when to wake up, when to sleep, and when to eat. If someone does not like what is on the menu, they can choose something else—though it might be simpler, like soup and a sandwich or leftovers. So, shop around, and if you prefer a more home-like environment, consider a smaller facility.
    47
  116. All of these issues are a reality. As we age we get in this comfort zone and don’t realize that we are doing things or not doing things that are really important. If you see something, say something. We all benefit from it. Thanks for the wake up call.
    46
  117. Wow, after watching this video, I can really see the difference decluttering can make! 🧹✨ If you're looking for a simpler, happier life, this is a must-watch! Don't miss it!
    46
  118. I hope things are getting a little better. I had a couple of issues I was trying to sort out, you remarks covered it all. I have looked at a facility where everyone. has their own little spartment. The one bedroom was very spacious and if my cat is still around she could come too. What thurned me off that place is the cook used too much pepper for me. I stopped looking because my health😊 improved and allowed 😅 15:04

  119. Elderly Wisdom! I am 68 years old. Thank you for your post. Your post helped me understand my reality, what I am facing in my own life and decide/plan the rest of my life. Plan my independency. Many thanks!

  120. 6:37 This video is incredibly insightful and well-presented! Thank you for shedding light on such an important yet often overlooked issue. The information is clear, practical, and easy to apply in daily life. I really appreciate the thoughtful approach and the natural solutions shared here. It's refreshing to find content that is both educational and genuinely helpful. Keep up the great work—your efforts are truly making a difference! 🙌👏

  121. My grandfather is 82 and I've noticed his walking speed and grip strength getting weaker. We encouraged to him to walk and do light exercises and he's already feeling better! Thanks for these great insights, super helpful!
    43
  122. My wife is my Earth Angel ! :face-red-heart-shape: Do you old timers remember that song by The Penguins back in the day? She takes wonderful care of me at home with my painful nervous system disease. Our first date was May, 25, 1979, yes I remember. 😊
    43
  123. Our God indeed is a covenant keeping God. Has he said a thing and not perform it? I watch how things unfold in my life, from penury to $155,000 every three months and I can only praise him and trust him more. Hallelujah🙌🏻❤️
    43
  124. They hurt me so MUCH. I FOUGHT FOR THEM WITH RESPECT. ALL BY MYSELF. I DO NOT ASK FOR NOTHING. I STAY WITH GOD. THEIR I PUT MY TRUST AND BELIEVE IN GODS HELP AND STRENGHT THANK YOU GOD THANK YOU

  125. Your comments about loneliness of people in care homes has inspired me to visit a former neighbor, a veteran. Perhaps I can befriend a few to visit as well.

  129. You give us a lot of things to really think hard about. Thank you
    42
  130. I totally agree with this. I used to visit someone regularly in a nursing home and while he and the other people there were treated kindly by the staff, I was dismayed by the fact that the inmates were just sitting there, doing nothing. The TV was on constantly, but no-one was watching it. There were books people could borrow, but nobody was reading. It was absolutely depressing. I want to stay independent, living in my own home for as long as I can and if I get to the stage where I can't look after myself, I would rather just pass away naturally.
    41
  131. I'm 76. I broke my hip 3 years ago and found I couldn't live in my condo. Everything was too difficult. As well condo buildings are often lonely places. Some are great but mine wasn't. I moved into a retirement home nearby. The minute I walked in the door I felt at home. The other residents, staff, and management are fantastic here. Everyone is so friendly, warm and caring and I have more friends now than ever before. Yes, things change dramatically. All of the items listed in this video are true but you find ways to replace them. Some people here still drive but there are also bus trips to the mall and other activities. Those who can't drive often get a mobility scooter or wheelchair and off they go to a nearby park or shopping. Taking a cab is a good way to get out. It's much less expensive than maintaining a car, insurance, gas, repairs, and the stress of traffic. There are so many more advantages to retirement living but my final thought is look at some homes get a feel for the atmosphere, talk to some of the residents and staff, and ask if you can stay on a trial basis. Great video. Thank you.
    41
  132. I have been considering a nursing home, but after reading all the comments made, I feel you all saved my life. I know it's just a matter of time before my 82 year old husband or my 77 year old self when God calls us back home. We can afford to have someone come in and help us. I thank all of you from the bottom of my heart for helping me with this decision. Multimedia is apparently good for somethings. God Bless you all and thanks for putting this information out there for all of us. You've made a difference in this world. Dolly Kirkwood

  133. I’m 88 years old—no pharmaceuticals, no doctors, and feeling great! I sleep 12 hours a night, don’t drink alcohol, fast-walk for 30 minutes five times a week, lift a little weight, and stay socially active. So far, so good—and I’m deeply grateful for it all! 🙏✨
    40
  134. I am experiencing fatigue and heart pain, shortness of breath. Thank you for the information.
    38
  135. I'm 70 and a widow, but I still shave my underarms and legs. I still dye my hair. Still bath and use baby lotion all over my body afterwards. And I still dress like a queen 👑 and ware jewelry before I walk out of the house!😂😂😂
    38
  136. I was a single mother that was giving every ounce of myself to my only son 24/7. He grew up a very strong and successful person. He is a good son. BUT I expected him to give me back at least a % of how I treated him. Of course, I was disappointed. You are right. I figured the only way I can feel loved is to love myself the way I love him. I became my own son. Fuss over myself the way I used to spoil him 24/7. No other way. ♥️
    37
  137. At 70 I felt great; at 86 I feel rotten. My advice: Stay away from doctors!!! :eyes-purple-crying::face-pink-tears:
    36
  138. Number 4. I am a female 78 years old I have renal failure 3B I used to be 30 now I'm up to 51 to 57 on my GFR my doctor says I'm doing very good and what you said was very interesting I don't have all the vitamins that you're talking about but I do try to eat as much as I can and veggies strawberries any kind of fruit and vegetables I have turkey chicken fish me I am in porterville California
    36
  139. Always sleep in a comfortable chair. You will never die in bed.
    35
  140. Everything you’ve said is what my 102 year old mother is going through. Thank you for making me feel better about her transition.
    35
  141. An eye opener!! Thank you 😊
    35
  142. Taking your advice starting tomorrow morning. All good ideas. Thank you.
    34
  143. It’s a prison I live with my daughter have my owe space an am glad I’m not in one off those places very good speech ty
    34
  144. 6 . I like the idea of letting go and not feel any obligation to be part of boring & repetitive conversations!
    34
  145. i pushed myself to do as much as I could to get out of that nursing home/ rehab. I was in hospital in March 2023 got out and then a major blood c;lots/ Mowved on and I stayed thru 610/23. too long but I had to learn to walk again. I am there now it is two months and It will be a year of struggle. I have come a long way baby. Learning to walk bath by slef. My range of motion is improving and I can dress myself without too much trouble. I have started to cook again and fix for my son and his wife. Got rid of the the stair hospital bed. I even drove myself to meet my sister 80 miles to do alittle casino slots. Drove mysleld to the doctors. So I am fighting and hope I never have to go back. I agree with this video you loose yourself and independence in the nursing home and no privacy.
    34
  146. Very educational and useful video. Thanks for sharing. 6
    33
  147. I wish it worked. My children ignore me more.
    33
  148. There's nothing better than having your own place - with your freedom, time and mood to do your own thing. I just turned 72 a few days ago, and I feel great, thank you Lord. All by myse;f in my own bungalow-shack, I have my own world- massive red bougainvilleas at the front yard in bloom due to hot weather and as Lenten season is fast approaching, and a mango tree at the back,Where I try to pluck some with a long stick. I thank the universe for my life.
    33
  149. Family members should step up and take care of their elders instead of dumping them in nursing homes. It’s heartbreaking how society abandons its seniors!
    33
  150. Retired medical social worker. Great video…
    32
  151. Thank you so much for this very helpful tips . My husband and I are both 85. We can still walk without any help of cane. My brain is very is very sharp alert and fully functional. I used to be an English teacher and I wish I could still teach.
    32
  152. I think you have missed one important aspect of friendships over 70 - loss. I'm introverted and have never had a big social circle, just a few close friends. My four closest friends have all died, people I have been closed to for decades, 6 decades in one case. I still don't want lots of superficial friends but I do regret having no really close friends left.
    32
  153. This is a great way to do things.
    31
  154. Thank you for your insight into living in a nursing home……… I have lived independently for many years, I cook, clean, do my own shopping etc; I love the freedom to go out and come home as I please, also I love my garden, I spend hours just pottering, planting and digging the soil. I’m approaching my 82nd birthday……… I value my freedom and independence beyond anything else, living in a nursing home fills me with dread and your experience has confirmed my determination to remain independent. In short I’m doing just fine as I am and God willing I will continue to do so. Much love and God bless you. From a Scot living in England 🇬🇧
    31
  155. My mother in law aged 94 had exactly these symptoms. She went away peacefully.. You have compiled these very correctly. Would be very useful for the society... thanks.
    30
  156. l was also told how wonderful to live in a nursing home.So this tells me no no.Thanks for this info! Almost like a jail!Not for me!!!
    30
  157. It's better to die in your sleep,than stay paralised in bed for a long time,don't you think so???😢😢😢
    30
  158. My mother was in a nursing home after my dad died. We first placed her in a personal care facility but then she had a stroke. I tried to visit her as often as I could while holding down a full time job & caring for a family. No one wants to place their loved one in a nursing home but sonetimes you don't have a choice. My mother passed away at almost 91. As for me I never want to live in one. I'd rather die earlier in life & never have the need to be in one for the reasons you stated. Thank you for this video so ppl don't think they're going to a resort.❤
    30
  159. Oh the mystery of life .but for the Grace of GOD .my beloved .❤❤❤❤❤

    29
  163. I’m trying my hardest to keep my husband out of a nursing home.I worked in a nursing home when I was young .I I never thought that I would be worrying about a nursing home at my young age.Time goes by so fast .
    29
  164. I had three family members in nursing home, a lot keep me so up set, I visitofter just to see what was going on, I just done what they needed, take them a piece cake and drink, they loved it, I’d fix their hair if needed, I saw the smile leave their face, not enough help was a big problem, I’m 87 now hope I never have to go. I’m blessed to do all my wor, go where I won’t to, thank you Lord.
    29
  165. Human interactions are very stressful and cutting that off is pure bliss, it is a lovely peace.
    29
  166. Good information.
    29
  167. My daughter is such a spoiled brat growing up. Ms entitled. Now she’s 31 only call when she need help. “I reply to her, you missed your parents when you need something “. But I still help her with little stuff because I’m a mother. Now she’s embarrass to call or even text me. My life is full of activities hope she does the same wherever she is.
    29
  168. I know in m y heart that loneliness can be ver y hard in a person. But in your house you have a world to see ❤and.enjoy I see my trees enjoy putting water to the❤❤ birds everyday, see the sky, walk around my.house is a world nobody tells me what to do I am free and enjoy it while I can we have to think positive everyday and even laugh about ourselves is a sense of happiness, don't give up.
    28
  169. I do the reset before bed because it is nice to wake up to a clean home. I also put things away as I go. I have also created a space for everything. I keep the things that have meaning or items that I use. One trick that helps with dish washing is to put the items that don't need much scrubbing in the dish washer and let pans or bowls with stuck on food soak for about 10 minutes. I let the water do the work. While things are soaking, I make a bed or take my shower etc. When I done with that, I check on the items soaking. Most of the time the food comes right off. I donate books to charity once I've read them and only keep the ones I love or are good reference materials. I also donate clothes that don't fit or look good on me. I go though my house pretty often to see what I can donate. In fact, that is on my agenda today.
    28
  170. Hope You stay safe and be content till the end. BLESSINGS 🌹🙏🇲🇽🤗❤️
    28
  171. Number 2 definitely! I'm 68 and noticing that I have to MAKE some changes in my daily life routines! I was thinking about the water before my coffe and then found this video, isn't that funny? Would You please talk about LONELINESS? I have no one and have gone thru a lot of situations that You wouldn't believe! Mother's family has treated me like dirt since I was young! Please talk about BEING more kind to one another specially to the elderly! Thank You and have all of You the Best of days! 🌹🤗❤️🙏

  173. What a timely video. I am 85 and have noticed these changes very slowly but surely. Your video is exactly what I was looking for. Thank you so much.
    28

OR TWO, THEN I SLOWLY GET UP AND WALK SLOWLY...then I set bread and butter before coffee... Thank you for YR videos I will share them with friends and family. 😊😊❤❤
    27
  175. Thank you so much for sharing these valuable & essential tips and subtle warnings. I am certainly noticing some signs now in both my husband & I. Makes me appreciate my husband more. I have already lost my daughter from a congenital heart defect at the age of 24 as well as my baby brother from cancer and they both experienced most of these changes & subtle warnings. Thank God for those precious moments that I spent with both of them. One never gets over the death of a loved one.

  176. I learned about a great way to lose weight without a diet and it worked. First when you wake up in the morning after you go to the bathroom drink a glass of water 8 oz Oz I continue to drink an 8-oz glass of water throughout the day each and every hour up until dinner time if there's physical activity you may need to increase that water second thing get a good night's sleep on interrupted at least 7 to 8 hours if you can third first 30 days cut out sugar cut out sugar after that your body needs a little sugar but make it small fourth cut back on carbs eat them for breakfast and lunch for dinner have a meat or fish product with vegetables and 5th exercise by walking I promise you if you follow that you will feel so much better you will lose weight and you will feel healthier than ever is work for me I lost 100 lbs and I can't even tell you how much better I feel but this video was so wonderful to listen to thank you for this beautiful video information informative and good luck to everyone out there remember starting something new isn't easy sometimes but if you can do it you will look back and say thank God I did God bless everyone
    27
  177. YES I need to drink more water especially first thing in morning These are extremely helpful suggestions Habits need to be broken over time When I know better I do better. Million thanks

  178. I had to put my only sibling into a nursing home because I was getting too old to look after her as she had Alzheimer’s and was getting aggressive. She has been there for 3 years and I visit her every second day at different times of the day. I must admit, the carers have been wonderful, she has her own room and bathroom, unfortunately her precious watch and diamond ring were stolen. Generally the staff have been very helpful, often offer me meals whilst I am there etc. My sister is always clean, hair done showered every day. She is in a section of 12 with other Alzheimers patients, with Doctors and nurses on hand and at least 3 to 4 carers for the 12 patients. I looked at many places before I decided on this particular place, it was very heartbreaking to have to put her into care, but I feel she is in good hands and I thank the staff every day for the way the take care of her, a thankless job I think, not for everyone.

  179. Coming to you from El Sereno, CA (aka Los Angeles) this video was great. The saddest moment I remember was seeing a elderly grown man being wheeled into a rest home on a gurney. Knowing he may NEVER come out again. Here in El Sereno we are taking care of my friends 102 yr. old mother. It isn't easy. She is ungrateful and entitled brat. My friend is 80 yrs. herself and her sister that was taking care of the mom died for obvious reasons. God put me here to help out I know for sure. And I help with the two dogs who love me.

  180. Seniors frequently lack money to update wardrobe!

  181. I'm 70 and don't want people who I know have never really cared about me, around me. I've already decided who will receive my house and all my money 🤑💰... And it's not them!😂😂😂
    26
  182. Your advice holds true from the day they were born, not when they have grown up. You started that disrespect from day one. Set your boundaries and expectations and don't change them.

  183. Thank you for the good information. I am 77 .🙏🙏 GOD bless you.

  184. What an awesome story I’m 75 and I’m having trouble I have to use a walker. I have a wheelchair in the house, but I’m also a veteran and they have helped me tremendously, but I’m still falling and I can’t seem to get help too quickly. I do call the fire department and they can come to the house and pick me up, but that doesn’t stop me from falling. I’m really scared cause I’m alone. I lost my only husband five years ago. We were married for 50 years I’ve never been too active, but I’ve always worked. I’m just scared. I’m afraid that I’m gonna lose everything. What about the money that I’ll lose it coming to a nursing home I know it’s expensive. Thank you for this informative video.
    24
  185. I read many of your comments and am so sorry so many don’t understand or appreciate your time. Again I appreciate every word you say and all the time it takes to bring this information to all. God Bless you and yours.

  186. I'm 81 and I know what you mean. I'm slowing down, I'll hang around the house as long as I can. thank you for this info.

  187. My mother was placed in a nursing home. she was 93 and was healththy congition tests were given, she passed the test. I went to visit and i passed right by her and didnt recognize her. I went and asked the nurse. Where is my mother. SHE IS OVER THERE. Mom was shivering and almost naked with her gown hanging down over her knees. I got a blanket and took her back to her room. She said, i have been sitting there all day. I told the nurse do not take her out of her room and please feed her. The next day my siste called and she had passed away to glory. I was in shock. I felt the system killed her. Im still grieving her death. Thank You for reading.

  188. My life motto is "Don't depend on anyone except yourself". I also trust no one. I'm 92 years old and doing just fine.

  189. Hi I thought about going into assisted-living. I had a stroke back in 2021 and still feel like I haven’t recovered from it. I’m only 56 and have my stroke at 53. When I was in the hospital recovering from my stroke I hated it. It seems what I went through in the hospital. It’s much like you describe your nursing home to be. I lost my dignity, there’s nothing like wearing a diaper when you’re only 56 or at the time I guess I was 53 and meals were almost brought to me. I didn’t have a choice. I was on a low sodium, a.k.a. no taste meal plan. I was always woken up early in the morning so they could do blood work. My medication was brought to me and a tiny plastic container and the nurses always watch me. Take it to make sure I was taking them all. This was during Covid times so I wouldn’t be able to leave the room. Plus because I had a stroke, I couldn’t go to the washroom independently, a nurse owes had to be there to make sure it didn’t fall. I think maybe you should’ve gone to a seniors home instead of a nursing home. Here in Canada anyway a senior living home is meant for people that want some independence, but you can also have someone come in and clean your house or I mean your apartment or you can have meals delivered or cook your own food and there’s activities that you can do, you can go on shopping chips or even to casino or maybe even concerts or shows and then you don’t have to worry about the driving because they will drive you. Thank you for this video.

  190. Yes everything that was said is all true once in a home you loose everything in life get bashed treated like dirt in some homes what goes on behind closed doors no one knows about oi had my mother in one and a dear friend , there is no way I want to go into a home IAM 89soon I can still. Look after my self . The homes are like a prison . I really enjoyed the talk it is all true and more . Keep up those reminders .
    23
  191. I have already done a lot of this. Now in a different type home, I am watching what I want and keep here . Thanks for this video!
    22
  192. I'm 68 and still work full time in my own small business. I am going to start to declutter now! Thank you.

  193. Thank you Elderly Wisdom, I love to hear this...🥰
    22
  194. I am 79 and I walk 8-9 miles every day outside come rain, wind, or shine. I walk 4 miles by myself and 4-5 miles with my dog. Prior to walking I ran for 34 years in 100 degree heat, 30 below zero , rain (to include Thunderstorms), snow (to include blizzards), and wind(to include gusts of 50mph+). I competed in 10K, marathons, 50 milers, and 100K(meaning I raced these events). I have run 75,000 plus miles. I changed to walking because I blew out my right knee lifting a heavy parcel on my job. I went through 3 procedures(to include 2 knee replacements). Therefore, I walk. I basically eat what I want. I love to bake and actually am pretty good at it.
    22
  195. You said if you needed something, you could push a button and help would come (I may have worded this differently) Those call buttons usually are ignored. The staff are always busy. I’m 85 today and tire of having to care for myself and 2 cats, and all my monthly finances, doctors visits, and other things. BUT I decided years ago I cannot leave this and go to a nursing home! Life may change for me and I won’t have a choice but today I am in my own home. My parents and husband were in a nursing home and I regret that! Thanks for this video so folks know to think about it first.😮
    21
  196. I drink water before bed and first thing in the morning..And I keep water by my bed @ night.. Bathroom visit a water during the night.. Thank you for the info.. We can never know to much about safety @ any age..Thanks Again 🙏

  198. Number two and number four I’ve always slept on my back, but now after your video, maybe I’ll have to try sleeping on my left side. My mom lived to be 100 years old. She just died in 2024 and she almost made it at 1:01. I don’t know if I wanna live that long because I already have lots of complications. I had a stroke when I was 53. I have high blood pressure and diabetes. I’m already living a senior‘s life because I don’t go to work anymore because of my health complications, but I go to sleep when I want and I eat when I want and I eat whatever I want. I try and have a balance diet with fruit and some vegetables And not a lot of red meat. It’ll be nine years before I’m 65, but I already feel like I’m a senior just because of that stroke.
    21
  199. We are 77 here. In our own home and never want to go into a nursing home. I have never seen one I liked. You have to give up so much of your own autonomy. This video is very correct on all 6 points and kudos for making it so others can see what happens to elder people. Stay in your own home as long as possible. It is hard but well worth the effort. We are happy living where we are today.
    21
  200. THANK YOU VERY MUCH, you expressed all of my concerns, now more determined to stay vibrant and enjoying my life. Thank You Again.
    21
  201. Thank you for highlighting pistachios! They’ve been a staple in my diet for years, and I’ve noticed improvements in my digestion and blood sugar. To all the seniors out there—take good care of yourself and always choose what truly supports your health, inside and out.
    21
  202. So many people don’t realize the reality until it’s too late. 6:45 Important to hear firsthand experiences like this!

  203. Great video, well said sir, trust your self than your children's or even your wife, I am in the same stage, let god deal with it, amen.

  204. # 4 - Great video and advice. Loved the beautiful scenery in this video. Soothing voice as well. Can’t imagine anyone not liking this video.
    20
  205. My mother has been in 3 so called good old age homes. One was worse than the next. They treated her roughly, neglected her, left her 7 hours after a stroke begore callingme, refused to put her down for a nap when she needed one. Treated her like a mental patient. Save money for an independent carer!
    20
  206. AMEN TO GOD BE ALL THE GLORY!!!🙌❤️🙏😇😊

  207. I am 80 year-old woman. I moved from OH to GA just recently, in order to be closer to my son/family. I lost my husband 10 years ago. Since then, my son has been asking me, on and off, if I want to move closer. But I didn’t see the need until now. So I moved 500+ miles away from Midwest to South, from what I have been accustomed for the last 50+ years. But the move itself, sorting/packing my household items and selling/buying the property, was so difficult; much more than I imagined. I regretted over and over thinking that I made the biggest mistake in my whole life, and broke down several times. I told my friends in OH that I saw only a pin-hole size of light at the end of the tunnel. I have been living under stress and anxiety for the last four months. But today I came across this video which has changed my attitude toward looking forward in my new future; finding new friends, starting again my old hobby (sewing), which I haven’t done since the pandemic, and new hobby I found online (oil paint by numbers); etc. Thank you so much for putting this video up!

  208. I am 73 years old and I hate being alone and especially living in a senior building with people who have dementia, at my age I even think very seriously about going back to work, getting a job would be the best thing for me and would feel much better, where I live it's very depressing and living with people who have dementia makes it even more depressing.
    19
  209. your advice holds .... thank you

  213. I love being in solitude 🙏
    19
  214. I'm glad to come across this. It has really opened my eyes and gives me more confidence. I have always been doing it so wrongly.
    19
  215. Excellent advice
    19
  216. Thanks, all 4 kinds made sense. Will apply to my mornings from now on.❤😊

  217. I'm going to be 76 and I feel I passed every description of a good lifestyle after 70. thanks, my friend Pò

  218. This was a well thought out and informative video. Thank you for taking the time to share it.🤗
    18
  219. Very valubĺe lesson .
    18
  220. I am 84 years old. I have a very challenging full time job, my wife and I are now in the process of building our retirement home. I mentioned to a coworker that I was somewhat thinking of retiring in five and a half years. His response was, will you be at retirement age then?
    18
  221. I learn about life when I was on my family farm. It is easier to weed when the weed is young than to wait until they get older and harder to manage.
    18
  222. Many people think love fades with age, but for some, it becomes even stronger. Remarrying after 60 can be a beautiful journey, but being prepared is key—looking forward to these important insights!
    18
  223. All the points you raised are on point! I will definitely share this with my fellow seniors. Both my hubby and I are retired and having worked in nursing homes ourselves, we are one in wanting to spend the remaining years of our lives as independently as possible. We live in an apartment complex that's rented to elderly people in their 80s and even 90s. Although quite a number have health issues and other mobility restrictions, they manage to live on their own and are apparently happy.
    18
  224. Lowering my room temperature made a definite improvement in my sleep quality. Having a bedtime routine helps also.
    18
  225. Retiring this year, $82K biweekly, this video reminds me of my life in 2023, you have really inspired me in so many ways!!!!!♥️
    18
  226. Excellent advice. Thank you
    17
  227. How wonderful to have a sign of an invitation. I can't wait.
    17
  228. Why should we be so worried about leaving this earth. Healthy or not, young or old, wealthy or poor,.we all will die. We are lucky if we died young and Godly so we can escape difficulties. We just have to be good though so when we die heaven is our dwelling. The world is nothing but an elimination ground..we are here to be good and follow God's commandment.. when we die you will be in a beautiful place called heaven.
    17
  229. I'm a retired caregiver and I must say that's no place for anyone. They only want your money as well as your family members. If you talk too much about leaving, or try to leave on your own you will be medicated. And out of the whole nursing home you only have a few people who care. The rest will be beat, and starve you to death if you can't feed yourself. It won't matter if you report the caregivers. Again, they just want your money. 🙏🙏🙏🙏
    17
  230. Thank u very much. Good information
    17
  231. Number 4, at 83 I have had sleep problems for years, due to a shoulder problem I can only sleep on my right side and as a result am troubled by restless sleep. I thought it was because of being diabetic. I will now have a word with my doctor to see if we can fix things.
    17
  232. Can't you get a message like this down to maybe 8 minutes?
    17
  233. This is an interesting video. But please bear in mind, that not every senior citizen fits into this category. There are many, that thrive on being alone, rather than dealing with other people’s drama. I follow the philosophy of the Bible, which relates to how the birds 🦅 never worry about their next meals. In other words, I choose to put my faith in my creator, and “Be (still), and (know) that He is God.” It has brought me through many difficult times thus far. I stopped depending on people years ago, and He has never let me down…….
    17
  234. My wife and I, we decided from the beginning: No children!
    16
  235. I disagree. Human connection is vital, especially as we age. Friends and family bring laughter, support, and a sense of belonging. Can we truly thrive without them?
    16
  236. Wow thanks for your information about about daycare. I’m 74 years old and I’m still active in doing things on my own. I’m stillm driving. I’m very happy with living with my son. I cooked my own food. But thank you for taking about these issues. I’m very happy with my life living with my son. God bless him and I to have the strength to keep moving on. No rest home for me. 🙏💞💞🙏🙏😍😍
    16
  237. Very informative I'm 74 thank you.
    16
  238. This is all good information about ugly habits that older people have, But it should be remembered that the older generation was raised to pursue a lifestyle to make them happy and secure. We spend a life time to reach that lifestyle and security only to have the whole world system change, and we are forced to a totally new system, plus morals and values that we were not taught or prepared to deal with. Only to be told by younger generations that we must step outside of our comfort zones, and except situations we may not agree with that are totally uncomfortable or even alien to what we were raised and taught to deal with. And while it may be true that we are forced to adapt to the constant changes, it does not make it easy to do. It also does not make it easy for older people, when the younger generation tries to force the changes upon you, and then criticize, or belittle you, if you do not like or agree with them.
    16
  239. Love this video,great advice
    16
  240. We cant do nothing if our time will come. Only God knows . He's d only one who decide for our life.
    16
  241. No nursing home
    16
  242. This video is very useful for senior citizensm
    16
  243. Thankyou very good information Now my age is 70 I worked as a sociol activities last 40 years information Have 2 sons My husband left and went off I learned so many issues from this video Thankyou

  245. Thak you so much for sharing
    15
  246. Just the truth. May God continues to protect and strengthen us as we age🙏
    15
  247. Wow! Double Wow! Triple Wow! Good Lord, have mercy. Valuable, valuable video. Thanks, man.
    15
  248. Introduction too lengthy, make it less interesting 😮
    15
  249. This explains why I cry after leaving my daughter's house - Not so when my son comes over - so sad
    15
  250. Friendships are often about seeking social approval or belonging when you're young. By your 70s, you've established your identity and legacy and no longer need external validation. Satisfaction now comes from within rather than depending on the opinions of others.
    15
  251. So true what you say, I will consider it seriously and fight hard to stay in my home as long as I possibly can, thank you very much fo the enlightenment.
    15
  252. Thank you for this video it is a real eye opener. I am 74 live on a finca with 10 dogs 6 cats 2 donkeys and 13 chickens. I look after all of them myself just getting the ocasional help with the land. I work in a animal charity shop twice a week which i really enjoy. I do have quite a few health problems lots Of pain in the knees too name one of them. But the animals keep me going no time to think of my problems the animals have to come first. One thing for sure after listening to this video i will never go into a nursing home i would rather die than be locked up in one of those places. Thank you again for this information and comments. 🎉

  256. Hey, thank you for reminding us seniors (77 here) that we need to continue to work our bodies even though we may be retired. Mentally, I still feel sharp but I have allowed those extra pounds to creep up on me, which affects my mobility, stability, and balance. I thought just walking for 30-60 minutes a day was good a core exercise just by itself, however, I have noticed continued stiffness in my joints and lack of muscle tone these last few years, just by relying on walking. I came across your channel last week and decided to dust off my Aerodyne bike, and Chair Gym and start using them again. Have done ! Have also signed up with local gym that teaches Tai Chi and began my first class last Saturday. Thank you. I needed someone to remind me to continue to take care of my body in addition to taking care of the house, grandchildren, and hubby (not necessarily in that order !). Grandma from Texas

  258. I have never chased new friends and the few that I had have fallen by the way or died. However the couple of new friends I have made since I have gotten older are good friends
    14
  259. I can't wait, I'm tired of life on earth 😮

  260. Who can even afford a nursing home….they cost thousands a month!!!
    14
  261. ❤ thank you
    14
  262. I am 90 years old and have just started doing this. It has been a blessing to me.
    14
  263. This is the best advice I ever heard thanks for sharing keep up good work. ❤
    14
  264. I can relate to all those things. Bathrooms and medical cabinets are done. Paper stuff took as a long time. We had kept everything, found credit card statements from the 80's, boarding passes from many trips. Bankstatements and all kind of magazines we had bought over the years. It sure took forever and one of the shredders died during the process. Right now I have 5 bags standing in the hallways, ready to leave. We got rid of so much stuff already, but often it seems that the house is still full. Guess it's time for round two.
    14
  265. Excellent advice, easy when living alone. 🌹

  266. #6, I'm 64, & 1 Year ago my wife of 38yrs died of cancer. That alone killed me. But now in addition to that I find myself thinking What Now? What'll I do? Losing her was the hardest thing I'd ever been through next to our mom's passing years earlier. But now without any real plan on my life without her has me wondering. Our kids are f grown & out with their kids now. I've thought about going into a nursing home, but seeing this definitely made me reconsider since I'm still physically able. So I'm still working now, longer than planned. We had thought we'd travel, make visits, some lazy days at home, etc. Living longer is a mixed blessing, a m8xed bag. But now I'm asking What's next? 1 thing however is, atleast for me, no nursing home now.
    14
  267. Wow. how things have changed. When I was young I use to love sitting and talking with older people and learning from their life experiences. As I learned about all of the potential tragedies they avoided and the great things they accomplished, also the good, and the bad, they had to live through. It taught me how to survive, and thrive, in an ever changing world. Now I am an older person, willing to share my life experiences with any young person including my children and grandchildren, who wish listen.
    14
  268. This is how it is with me, at 70 years, I just want peace, quiet and to be alone in solitude.
    14
  269. Thank you. Im learning from your videos
    14
  270. Great subject. People need to understand what is going to happen.
    14
  271. I would never remarry due to financial reasons. Any money we are leaving is ONLY going to kids and grands. Why do you need to remarry and live together if you just want companionship? And then you have to take on their families? Too old to even want something like that.
    14
  272. We live as long as God sees fit.
    14
  273. Very important information....there is much truth in this.....❤
    14
  274. This video was so eye-opening. It's hard to think about these signs, but it's important to understand them, especially as we get older and watch those we love go through changes. I’ve noticed some of these in my own family, and it's comforting to know I'm not the only one facing these challenges. Thank you for sharing this valuable information! It definitely makes me want to cherish the time I have with loved ones even more.

  275. It’s the age, it’s the mileage. Great advices! More power to you!

  276. I worked in skilled nursing, assisted living, memory care, and hospice. I have a true phobia of any type of facility, the staff generally are there for a paycheck, they are so burnt out and short staffed and watching people wither and die does something negative. The nurses become uncaring and the condition of the patient under their care deminish. Eventually they loose all empathy. The patient is a bed with a dollar amount attached to it
    13
  277. I need to work on#2 as I go to bathroom at !east 4 X every night. I don't have to worry about #1 or #3 as I like to sleep cool. However after breaking my left collarbone, I started sleeping on my right side. 10years later I badly broke both bones in my left leg below knee and I couldn't sleep on my left side. Now it's the only way I can sleep!
    13
  278. I saved your clutter video in my computer's CLUTTER directory. It took me ages sifting through my many saved directories and realized I need to declutter my clutter directory.
    13
  279. I dont agree at all, friends are a blessing as you get older and children lead their lives, having a friend doesnt mean you have to prove yourself, good friends are hard to come by and you should keep in contact with them, as a nurse I know that lonliness can kill
    13
  280. Loved this video! I have always been an introvert so I have never had more than a few “real” friends. Most were acquaintances. Everything you said resonated with me. I guess even the few “friends” I have now seem to be self-absorbed; complaining about this or that. They would be there for me, for sure, but their conversations are exhausting! So, I thank you for this video because I do and always have enjoyed my own company and never felt alone. I guess I have too many hobbies to ever be bored!
    13
  281. Hi, I have enjoy listening to you telling about your experience moving into a Nursing Home. I felt sad listening what you are going through. I have been a nurse most of life and have work in Adult Adult Card Home in New Zealand and Virginia Nursing Home. I know what you saying, How True right You are on Every Points. Now where I come from the Cook Islands in the Pacific. Our culture have no Nursing home in our Village . We are trained to take out elderly when time comes. We must trained our children on How we want to be taken care of when the time come or show them How thing should be done. Or if you can afford hire Care Giver to care for you in your home. Your love one can keep an eye on things for you. How is that sound to you or make thing to fit you okay 👍
    13
  282. @dianedelong5216 God bless you for being a good friend I will pray for your friend in the nursing home she is young to be there God bless her.

  283. Turning 60 taught me that less is more. I cleared out old clothes, let go of unnecessary obligations, and stopped worrying about others’ opinions. Toxic relationships? I walked away. I also stopped saving things "just in case"—most of them were never needed. By simplifying, I found more time, peace, and joy. Life after 60 isn’t about holding on—it’s about embracing what truly matters.
    13
  284. My husband is 60 years old and has dementia! He also had a mini strike in 2021 and I did not know why he was acting so unusual and phoned our doctor who told me to phone for an ambulance and he was taken to hospital and saved his life! It is important to understand what is coming and I thank you for doing this video which I have already learnt so very much from! Thanks for caring and sharing! David now has low blood pressure and sometimes his hands go numb but our doctor said not to worry about it! Also they have removed much of his medication including his blood pressure tablets as his blood pressure is too low! Years ago he had a number of falls and the paramedics said he had low blood pressure! Am I being paranoid that he could fall again? We have carpeted our home just in case of any falls! On 22nd March he has an appointment for a CT scan to find out how much of his brain has been eaten away and to find out the stage of dementia he is in! We have prepared ahead by already paying for his funeral in full! I try to make him know he is loved daily and he wants to die at home! What is your advice? F would you do a video for helping widows and widowers? Blessings brother!👍🙋

  285. Number 6. The pressure is off in my life since I turned 60, when I started choosing quality over quantity of people around me. I enjoy my own company, doing long walks in nature, reading meaningful and interesting books, painting (I'm an artist), and exploring new recipes. I love the culinary arts, traveling, and exercising, and I realize that time is getting shorter to accomplish so many things I want to do. Sadly, not all my past "friends" were what I thought. I'm 72, and my perception of everything has shifted dramatically. I'm grateful to everyone I've met during my living years for their contribution to this amazing evolutive and transformational process. I send lots of love and light to the creators of this life-changing channel and its viewers.

  287. I'm here. 70 years old. This is, sadly, fascinating and I'm so grateful you have said all this. I've learned so much. Thank you. X

  288. Wife died Christmas Eve 2022. We were married 51 years. There is no way I would remarry. 51 years was enough for me.

  289. Aging is a journey we all take, but knowing when a loved one is in their final chapter can be heartbreaking. 2:20 Understanding these signs could help us provide the love and care they truly need in their last moments.

  290. GRACIAS, GRACIAS .!!!! Im almost 60 years old. Those videos are very useful for me, I’m learning English and listening senior videos it’s amazing. Thanks for your time to post them.
    12
  291. Finances are a big part of the picture. I choose to buy vitamins and healthy supplements in place of buying a new sweater to impress strangers.
    12
  292. BIG THANKS for your excellent discussion💕. It is a great help for us as senior citizen👍😁
    12
  293. Thank you so much for making a great content. I am 68 and I only socialize and do smallest chitchat at work and I don’t deal with them after work or my days off. I enjoy being by myself with my 6 cats. That’s all I need and I text messages to my children daily basis and that is enough for me. 😅I am enjoying the quality time and so peaceful. When I was younger and when my husband was alive we used to have big wine party all the time but I don’t miss it at all. I can still have my wine with my cats.😂
    12
  294. Very useful for me as a reminder to get busy. 72 and lived in my house for 44 yrs of collecting good junk. Hate to part w/ anything useful....just in case I might need it later...lol
    12
  295. When I was hospitalized for operations of Chronological, I ran into inflection and was transferred to ICU with last rice service recommended. I hate hospital with every 4 hours interruption and the person next to me that really sick and bothering me. I want to go home and lie on the bed alone. I swore that I don't want medical facility, all of my aunts and uncle and old age relative lived and die in our home at the age of 100 with no complication.
    12
  296. So true. Being alone doesn't mean being lonely, & being at peace with one's own self is both liberating & fulfilling.
    12
  297. WHERE DID ALL OF THS HAPPEND, YEARS AGO I WORKED FOR LAWYERS, AN INDIANYOUSTER I WORKED WITH, ASKED ME THIS QUESTION, WHY DO CHRISTIANS HAVE RETIREMENT HOMES, DONT YOU HAVE CHILDREN. SHE SAID WE ARE HEARTLESS, AND NOT CHRISTIANS! 14:41
    12
  298. I can do all the things mentioned but one was a bit of a head scratcher. Getting up from the floor without using your hands. It's not possible for anyone to get off the floor without using their hands, even people in their 20s, at least if you're sitting on your rear end. I can do it from my knees but it's not possible from your rear end.
    12
  299. Very practical suggestions full of wisdom. But I believe in my everlasting and instantly available help my saviour and my true friend JESUS CHRIST. Glory and honour to His Holy name.❤😊

  300. I retired at age 50 having planned this when I was a teen. My support? 1. My wife of 40+ years 2. God 3. MYSELF! It's nice to have friends, purpose and financial security, but everything I do each day moves me closer to my goal of health, fitness and that Divine enrichment that comes through prayer. As a young man, I was a boxer, then a tennis player and today it's pickleball and Planet Fitness. Nature abhors a vacuum, so as we age and give up certain routines, have a ready plan to move forward or life will fill the void with shit. Your choice!
    12
  301. This pretty much describes how I would feel each time I would leave from visiting my elderly, Mom. She worked very hard physically her entire life and was very self-sufficient, and when her health declined where she could no longer do the things she once did, it was devastating and depressing for her and she became a very negative person. My Mom passed away last year, and I will never look back at all the visits that we shared, negative or not, with regret. We do the right thing and keep unconditional love and in the end we will have few regrets.
    12
  302. We used to have a big solid wood dining room table that would seat 12 to 16 people easily with all the insert pulled out, yes and we had all the chairs too. It took up space as we do not host big family dinners or other events anymore. I listed it for free and within minutes someone called, wanted it. They came by truck and picked it up, including a few other bulky items we had set aside to let go. So freeing to have that stuff out of the house.
    12
  303. This video is a great reminder that aging gracefully isn’t just about looks — it’s about healthy habits and self-care. It’s never too late to break bad routines and embrace a lifestyle that keeps both the body and mind youthful. Thanks for the practical tips!
    12
  304. Must prepare when gets old money independent be healthy owning a house having a big yard the ornamental plants the greens watering the plants nice suroundings enjoying the sights awesome!!!🇵🇭🇺🇸
    12
  305. At age 83 in generally good health, I dread to ever have to go to some nursing home or similar facility. Those places are death warmed over.
    12
  306. This is much easier for introverts. The truth is that most things we do in social circles don't really enrich our lives unless they are centered around hobbies you personally enjoy doing. I don't mind going out with people who have the same desires I have. I have always said no when I'm invited to go with some group to do something I didn't care about, even when I was young. It doesn't have to stop when you reach 70. I don't owe anybody anything. Being alone is peaceful and opens the door to going and doing what I like to do.

  308. What beautiful gems and nuggets you have provided. Indeed they are bullet points to understand and lead life as normally as it gets and retire into the sunset with grace
    12
  309. This makes me very depressed 😢. I am 63 years old, and a widow for 6 years now. I don't have any children or family, nor friends. But I do have 2 pet cats who I love very much. With severe pain from Lumbar Spinal Stenosis, and weakness in my legs, it's very, very, hard nearly impossible to stay active. Being on the 4th floor without an elevator makes it triple hard. Since my husband died after 30 years of marriage I am dead inside. I do work full-time, 3 days a week from home, and 2 days a week in the office. I live paycheck to paycheck. I can't even pay my cell phone bill this month because my paycheck can't fully cover my expenses. Listening to this video made me even more depressed 😔. Because life for me now is impossible.

  310. I"m 94.... going on 95 . Still driving. Sold my Lambo. Stopped driving Fast. Now I drive a Mini !.. never now go much over 90......

  311. I'm at this juncture and I'm very glad I watched this video. Thank you for help in explaining a lot.
    11
  312. The section on cognitive confusion at 07:22 was so emotional for me. It’s so tough to see a loved one struggle with memory, but understanding that it’s part of the process helps me be more patient. This video is truly eye-opening, and I’m grateful for the gentle reminders about offering comfort and dignity in these tough times.
    11
  313. Thank You !

  314. I will be 70 in July. My credentials were BSN, RN, CEN, CFRN, EMT-P. I was at work, more than at home. Due to unfortunate circumstances, I retired 6 years ago. My hard work and diligence resulted in comfortable retirement. I have one friend across the street, she works full time. I am alone 24/7, except when we weekend meals together. Unfortunately, my maternal grandmother had severe dementia. I spend half my day looking for the object I put down 5 minutes ago. The conclusion to this story: GETTING OLD IS NOT FOR SISSIES !!!! I need to do more, but I know it would be difficult to be out with others as I have a strong personality. I don't put up with nonsense.
    11
  315. This video should be for everyone not only for seniors!👍😊
    11
  316. Something I've noticed is a huge change in the way my HMO doctors treat me. I say, "Can something be done about this?" They say, you're 75 and smile condescendingly and knowingly. They have me on a wait it out schedule on heart valve failure and kidney disease. The plan is , to manage my health, that I die naturally before I need a new heart valve or kidney surgery or transplant. Mostly I think this is about saving money so as to pay the doctors more. Always more. Then one day they will tell me the bad news that "We should have done something sooner like a new heart valve cause you now have CHF. Too bad for you. So, I'll add one thing , number six. Your doctors stop giving any serious consideration to your future. :) ( Cause you don't have much future left etc. and their third home, yacht, Ferrari, private plane or fourth wife are expensive don't you know and I work for myself not you. ) :)
    11
  317. This is all true!
    11
  318. My bad habit is I just put my jacket on the couch instead of putting it back to its original place each time I come home, clutters started growing up from that moment, I need to change this bad habit.
    11
  319. Perfect timing.
    11
  320. Dont remarry
    11
  321. Thanks for the information I will never go in a nursing home home Lord help me to be healthy able to look after myself6
    11
  322. Tq for these confirmation, it's so true! Gives me strength to be me. ❤
    11
  323. right on your absolutely right spread the word !!!!
    11
  324. Could also consider sharing a home with friends your age. Just making sure that you all agree a set of rules followed by each person. Have these things in writing, signed and notarized. If you do not partake of alcohol, choose those who don't drink either. No free loaders, like wayward grandchildren trying to move in, everyone pay a certain amount toward bills etc. It is an alternative. Think about all possible scenarios first.
    11
  325. Just wear want you want no matter of age
    11
  326. I am 74. I will follow your suggestions. Hope I will have good results. Thank you.
    11
  327. Everything you spoke about applies to me. Thank you for sharing very interesting and important info. It makes such a lot of sense and I would like to start doing the correct exercises to improve my mobility - I am 79!
    11
  328. Great to see a candid discussion on how personal habits benefit senior health. Important for breaking taboos and improving elder well-being!
    11
  329. As regards the financial issues, things are much easier if both parties are on a similar financial footing. If both people are comfortably off they can leave property to their children without worrying about how their spouse would manage financially. Problems arise if one party is much better off and feels that they have to make financial provision for the spouse to the detriment of their children. That is a recipe for family conflict.
    11
  330. Wow, I had no idea how much little habits could impact how we’re perceived as we age! 🤯 These tips are GAME-CHANGING! It’s never too late to look and feel your best – I’m definitely going to be more mindful of my grooming, posture, and how I communicate. Who else is ready to level up their presence and age like fine wine? 🍷
    10
  331. Thanks . Very valuable. ❤❤❤❤❤❤

  332. Wow . . . . ! Thanks for this video. I'm 82 and I had NO IDEA that as I grow older I get closer to death. Now that was a wakeup call to me. Thanks again!

  333. Working in nursing homes all my life and suffering so much along side the mayority of the residents because it is so hard to be suscefull as a wistle blower I wish more people speak up like you do
    10
  334. Thankyou for you most honest talk,i have on occasions visited friend's in nursing home's, you honest assessment gives me courage to say no,perhaps find a friend as a room mate,stay together, it beats having all of one fredoms taken away, thankyou for your honest assessment welldone not for me

  340. I clean once a week. But in between I do dishes after cooking. Maybe run the vacuum over my two area rugs. Everything has a place and it will be put into it's place. People who have come to visit falls asleep because it's clean and comfortable here. I have severe vertigo and a deteration of the lining of the brain and I walk with a cane. Buy I'm only 62 years old and I still clean once a week rather I want to or not. My family and friends ask me what are you cleaning....😉

  342. You have to pastaway someday. Better to die at bed instead on the street. Why if you already reach the age more than 70. No matter when you pastaway. Good is about food because of disconforming. But not because fear of say goodby to the life.
    10
  343. Thank you for sharing this valuable information.
    10
  344. As people age, social interactions often change for many reasons—health issues, mobility challenges, or even feeling like they don’t want to be a burden. Loneliness can have a huge impact on mental and physical health. 💔 It’s important to check in on our elderly loved ones and create spaces where they feel valued and included. Has anyone noticed this with their parents or grandparents?
    10
  345. Im starting walking more tomorrow. 😅

  346. I'm a 80 year old white male. I have a close friend I've had since the mid 70's. He, a retired 75 year old Lt. Col. from the Air Force and me, a retired Fire Department Fire/Arson Investigator. He was a college student in the mid 70's and served a time as an intern with my department. I trained him in the ways of fire investigations as a part of his criminal justice master's program. I retired in 1990 and he, in 2007. We both bought Harleys and hit the road once a week for a few years. We still have lunch once a week and hash over old times and stories, even if we have heard them before. The one thing that is priceless at our age is there is no peer pressure. And, yes! We still ride those Harleys. Life-long non-smokers or consumers of alcohol have kept us in pretty good shape. Some people will talk to you in their free time. Others will free-up time to talk to you, A friend is someone who listens to you. A true friend hears you, when you don't speak.

  347. Remember the leader of the Hawkmen in the 80s Flash Gordon: "Oh well, who wants to live forever?"

  348. At 70, when you realize shorter cat lives are now the same as what you may have left, and you just want to outlive your cats even by one day, your perspective of using time well becomes clear.
    10
  349. I have shopping around more 6years for that. haven’t make up my decision yet.by the way I am 89 years young.

  350. Excellent choice.

  351. AVERY GOOD INFORMATION. PEOPLE WHO ARE OLD ENOUGH CAN BE AWARE OF WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN TO THEM IN TIMES TO COME. ❤🎉❤🎉🎉❤
    10
  352. Good video! I am 93 years old (94 in June, Lord willing), I live alone and do my housekeeping and cooking. I still drive as my eyesight is excellent and I have my reflexes! I stay active on the computer keeping up with current events and social media! I love Facebook and have one group that I started. I work 3 to 4 crossword puzzles daily and credit them with keeping me mentally alert! I survived pancreatic cancer at 83 after a 4-hour surgery, and an aortic valve replacement at 84. I have had Type 2 diabetes for 3 years and maintain it at the pre-diabetic level by diet, which is not easy, but doable! I believe the Lord expects me to keep on going and to witness for Him as long as I can! And that is exactly what I am doing and intend to keep doing. God Bless!
    10
  353. Sorry, but I have been in tidy homes that are tidy & comfortable - but I have also been in immaculate homes that feel sterile & uncomfortable. This isn’t a matter of clutter - clutter is something that needs to be improved - it is a matter of feeling like your home feels ‘lived in’ & warm. Spotless is NOT necessarily a good thing.
    10
  354. 2 this is very good advice and I will definitely try this information, thank you 🙏♥️
    10
  355. yes! thank you, finally someone is not pushing social connections. we dont need to put up with social obligations!
    10
  356. 5:19 If falls are the #2 cause of death, why don’t doctors prioritize muscle strength training for seniors the same way they push medications? Seems like prevention is being ignored for profit.

  357. Everyday is a blessing.
    9
  358. What about peanuts?
    9
  359. 13:32 "Looking back, I don't regret growing older." Growing old is a choice?
    9
  360. That’s a good point. In many developing countries, limited access to proper hygiene, healthcare, and clean water often contributes to lower life expectancy. Regular hygiene practices, like washing key body parts daily, can make a significant difference in overall health and longevity. Awareness and education on these small but essential habits are crucial!
    9
  361. 6:51 This video is truly eye-opening. Thank you for addressing such an important yet often overlooked topic with clarity and compassion. One of the most powerful takeaways for me was the explanation of unintentional weight loss as a sign of the body preparing for a deeper transition. It's something many people might dismiss as just aging, but your insight sheds light on why it matters and how families can respond with care and understanding. I truly appreciate the thoughtful approach in this video. Subscribed!

  365. 2,4,6 I evaluated people all over the city who may qualify for a Nursing Home...for 18yrs. Then, at age 70, I had a huge medical change and was "only mostly dead" in the hospital. Advocated for myself to go to the ONLY nursing home I would consider! Thankfully, They came up with a private room...the BEST in the whole building! But 49days after being there, I was able to discharge to home. I was so weak! I think it took 2years to get my brain back from all the medications in the hospital due to surgery and IV meds to get back from near death! So very thankful for being able to reach out and snatch some time with my little grandsons! I move my firewood and split some, take care of Chickens and my minimal garden, plus a Challenging Puppy who is now 3yrs old! Grow On and Keep Moving. I like the cartoon that says: Keep Moving or they will put a slipcover over you!

  366. A close friend of mine passed away suddenly at the age of 73 due to a condition like this. It was a heartbreaking loss for me. This is a crucial topic that more people need to be aware of. Thank you for sharing this important information.

  367. 16 minutes of simplistic BS. When you are old, just do what you want when you want. Free-est time of your life. Dying in bed is the easiest way to go and we all gotta go. Keep moving if your muscles and joint permit.

  368. this video explores five unexpected causes of death in people over 70 , highlighting that these risks are often overlooked until it’s too late. The video delves into conditions such as silent heart attacks, postural hypotension that causes falls, deep vein thrombosis, undetected infections that lead to sepsis, and medication misuse . Through illustrated examples, the video provides information on the signs and precautions for each of these risk factors. The goal is to raise awareness so that older adults and caregivers can take timely action to reduce serious health risks. Ultimately, the video encourages viewers to be more proactive in protecting their health . Thank you for sharing!

  369. The sentimental stuff is the hardest. People expect me to hold on to dried flowers, drink coasters from a special restaurant, my niece is upset that I don't keep framed photos of her late mother around. Every time she realised I gave away a travel souvenir that her mother gave me many years ago, she is annoyed. I am not going to build a shrine for my late sister at my home. My niece even expected me to keep a coffee mug that my sister drunk from. WHAT?

  382. Such a thought-provoking video! 🙌 I'm so glad I came across this. I’ve been thinking a lot about the challenges of remarriage later in life, and these five truths really opened my eyes. Financial and emotional considerations are definitely something I hadn't thought much about until now. It's not just about love, but about making sure everything aligns with your values and happiness. Thanks for sharing these insights — they’ve made me reconsider a lot of things in the best way! 😊
    9
  383. Thank you very much for these insights.... All the numbered regrets outlined were on points and what a valuable lesson to everyone who are entering the old age Territory.... After analysing all the points delivered these are some of my assessments... 1.old peoples home is appropriate for those who can no longer take care of them selves.. 2.those with mobility impediments... 3.those who are literally lazy to do things but requires the assistance of others. 4.last but not least those who have no support system or simply abandoned by his or her family... Thank you....

  388. Moving more. I’ve had a fractured back for 14 yrs

  392. Well put 👌

  393. Instead the go to a nursing home, hire someone to take care of you, in your own home. Believe everything is must better.🙏🏻❤️🙏❤️🙏🏽

  394. Hi One of your subjects was about talking loud Yes that was the case with me too. But you know, people talk with a tense the way that can hear themselves. So if have problem with hearing they obviously talk loud. This is what I found after I (to my primary physician advise) dropped ear wax removal in my both ears for a week then went to my him and he removed all waxes from my ears. Then I heard the world different! Kind of open environment, I could hear the sounds like the cars on the street better. Then now when I talk no one complains that I talk loud anymore! So I recommend any older people to do the same and talk to their physician and try to remove the wax from their ear.
    8
  395. So, wake up AFTER you open your eyes. Thank God for waking you up and ask what He's got in mind for your to-do list. THEN stand up, make your bed before you move your feet, take your morning meds, and check the email. By then your brain is actually working and body functioning.

  396. I'm feeling exhausted just watching this video!

  402. I used to worked at a nursing home I witnessed mostly of the workers how they treated the patients they hit them, punched, pulled their hair, slapped them and when I reported them to the management one got fired immediately for hitting a patient with a slipper on his head and 2 of them got suspended afterwards they all hated me and stopped talking to me.

  406. You never talk about spouse. I love my husband and love living with him. We love travelling, watching movies, reading books. Also seeing very old friends can be very nice.

  407. A lot of times an elderly person electrolytes are low like potassium potassium puts energy back into the body maybe eating some bananas will help

  411. #6 I like being alone.

  412. A place for everything and everything in its place. My Dad taught me me that and even at 83 I still put things away when finished using them. I taught my girls that and if you need to use something you will always know where it is.

  413. 2. A great reminder. Relax accept savor every minute spend time with your self and your spiritual life and be thankful . 4 Let go,😋

  414. Why get remarried after 60? Without it, you can’t still be companions.
    8
  415. I learned so much about Nursing home thank you for the info
    8
  416. I needed this!!. I have been downsizing for years and still have a long way to go. Wish I had seen the downsizing videos 20 years ago and started then. Most of us dont realize how much we accumulate and feel we must keep papers that are our security. This was a very good video.

  417. Well-Structured and Persuasive: The step-by-step approach, from explaining the problem to providing actionable dietary solutions, keeps readers interested and motivated. The emphasis on natural remedies instead of quick fixes makes this a refreshing and valuable resource for anyone looking to improve their eye health.
    8
  418. I had friends Iam 73 I dont have none now I just stay by my self
    8
  419. Yes, I follow most of these habits to keep my apartment/ home tidy. My problem is my roommate/brother refuses to put things back where he took them from. We are both seniors. He hates my reminding him to put things away. He thinks I am the odd one. He thinks it is an compulsion to need to tidy up.

  420. 🤔 While life after 70 may change, friendships can still bring joy, laughter, and emotional support! 💖👥 Having a few genuine friends can make the golden years even more meaningful. 🌟✨ However, the most important relationship is the one with yourself—inner peace and self-love matter most! 🧘‍♂💛 It’s okay to prioritize quality over quantity and enjoy solitude, but a kind conversation or shared memory with an old friend can be priceless. ☕📖 Cherish the connections that truly add value to your life! 💬💞 #GoldenYears #FriendshipMatters #SelfLoveAndPeace 🌿😊

  421. Thank You! At 70, I am now writing down a daily schedule and sticking to it.
    8
  422. Thanks for these reminders. The only time where I feel I can’t take my time getting out of bed is suffering severe leg or muscle cramps. So I have a sturdy lightweight portable footstool next to my bed I can flatly put my feet on to avoid springing out of bed in sudden pain. I also have a thermos of water I take sips of water of during the night to stay hydrated since I’m pre-diabetic.
    8
  423. Why did you name this channel "Elderly Wisdom"? It's hardly that, it's all depressing subjects. Not a good channel to stay positive about your golden years.
    8
  424. Everything that was mentioned here is very informative, not just for the elderly, but those that are younger so they can address these issues before they get to that age. It would be great if the areas that are shown named, would love to visit these places.
    8
  425. Definitely nnumber 2, and a reset before bed. I never wake up to a messy home.
    8
  426. 1:08 Aging brings many unexpected challenges, and constipation was one of them for me. I was skeptical about prunes at first, but after incorporating them into my diet, I was amazed at how effective they are. Not only do they help with digestion, but they also taste great! This video is a must-watch for anyone struggling with this issue.
    8
  427. I do all of these most mornings..BUT if I’m in a hurry sometimes I don’t.. Never too old to learn.. I will definitely slow my pace somewhat! I’m 88.. PRAISE GOD FOR YOU AND YOUR WONDERFUL MESSAGE..Keep the great messages coming 🙏👍
    8
  428. I wish I had known these tips earlier! Thank you for making senior health simple and achievable.
    8
  429. I felt sad with your experience inside the nursing home. I thank that here in my country we don't need that cuz we take care of our old parents we give all the love they wants
    8
  430. Very good informative talk. I have already been doing some of what you are saying, which is reassuring. I just need to do a few more now.
    7
  431. I downsized my life when I moved from Chicago to Buenos Aires. It requires constant review of our stuff so that we don't get weighed down by managing it. I learned about minimalism decades ago. I feel freer now because of it. My next project will be tackling papers and sentimental items. Thanks for the gentle push in this video.
    7
  432. Thank you for sharing, You basically described a very expensive hospital environment.
    7
  433. Anyone who gossips to you, will gossip about you.

  434. I have seen both good experiences and negative ones as my parents went into a nice facility in their 80s. Wonderful place, lots to do, various levels of care.
    7
  435. very useful knowledge, especially for the elderly

  436. I LIVE ALONE BUT WILL NEVER GO TO A NURSING HOME !

    7
  449. Got to learn to enjoy your own company. I did and I'm 49,relatively still young. True friendships develop because it could be months without seeing each other or even years and the next time it will be like yesterday,like family.

  451. Thank you for good information👍👍❤❤
    7
  452. I learned LOTS of things today - THANK YOU. Those tips all apply to me at 77. I am guilty of downing 3 cups of coffee on waking up ... and skipping breakfast altogether. I don't eat till around 2:00 pm (and even then I sometimes skip lunch) -- so basically I'm going about 15 hours without food .... just coffee (and the odd glass of wine). My morning routine is going to change dramatically, starting tomorrow. Once again THANK YOU.
    7
  453. thank you for advice l like it❤❤❤
    7
  454. I suppose I'm guilty of many things described here. Old loosely fitted clothing. Talking too much. Poor grooming. Poor posture. Pretty much the works. Things that personally go unnoticed without a reminder. Thanks for being the one to advising me where others did not. 👍
    7
  455. 🙏🙏🏽 Thank You.this information is very helpful i see my self making a lot of changes your information surely touch a lot of issues that i dealt with. please keep sharing it really can save someone life and help in the future 🙏🙏🏽💯

  458. Already MISSED 70, caring for mom, But, as she sadly passes on, DECLUTTERING, lightening the LOAD is the game plan!!! Will even pay HELPER(s) to GET IT DONE!!!
    7
  459. I live with my daughter but she doesn't want me here anymore. She is a nursing sister. I am 85 years old. I still carry bundles of washing to the garage to put in the machine. Hang it up and take down when dry. I cook on the days when she works. My two youngest grandchildren aged 29 and 26 live here too. They leave the kitchen for Nana to clean. I have spent my life helping my children financially and now only have my pension. My son in England pays my medical aid and I buy my own clothes, toiletries and snacks and what is left I put into the household. My health is still good but I am heartbroken. Why want to kick me out when I am at the end of my path in life? Everything I say or do is wrong and she is impatient when I talk to her so I stay in my room as much as possible. 😢
    7
  460. Thanks great video I will definitely apply most of them.
    7
  461. Excellent advice. Thank you.
    7
  462. Very inspiring, i need to do it to feel confident and presentable 😁 Thank you ! God bless. I will continue to watch all your videos because i want to age not only gracefully but also healthy and wise, more power to your channel.
    7
  463. This video really resonates with me. Sometimes, life feels overwhelming when you’re stuck in a cycle of financial struggle—no money for the basics, no car, no way to break free from the weight of it all. But it’s so important to remember that even in those darkest moments, we’re not alone. It's easy to feel like there's no way out, but hearing these real, raw experiences reminds me that we all have the power to take one small step at a time towards change. The struggle is real, but so is our strength. Let’s keep pushing forward together, one step at a time 💪✨
    7
  464. HOW DEPRESSIN! GOT ENOUGH PROBLEMS. NOT LISTENING TO THIS. I AM OF.........
    7
  465. Health and money are issues! LOL I have both….too much month at the end of the money 😂 I’m good I stay on budget, once in a while an unexpected expense happens but I manage it one way or another! RA nailed me in my late 20’s and the found OA up and down my spine with other issues there also….getting shut down turned my world upside down! Then ended up with CKD stage 4 and without help from a nephrologist, I started studying on nutrition to get that back up to stage 3a, back then doctors only wanted to set ya up for dialysis or transplants, I wasn’t giving in to that!!! Then 5 years ago Colon Cancer struck and I have to say that was a blow I had not expected at all, but got thru it with only losing 1/3 of my lower colon area, no bag etc! That was a blessing in my opinion, the Lord had that for me!!! Thank you Jesus🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 Anyway health issues too young made the money short for long term! Not fun but it is what it is😉
    7
  466. Many great questions are brought up in this video! Thank you!!😊
    7
  467. To be honest, I've never been much of a socializer. Even in my thirties I was beginning to move away from spending much time with people. I got more than enough "people time" at work. As I've aged I've continued to let go of social connections. One thing I do now, though, is correspond. With a pen-pal I can engage in deeper conversations, while retaining peace of mind. I can reply when it's convenient to me, or write in the middle of the night when I couldn't call someone. Works for me.
    7
  468. #4. Great video. Thank you
    7
  469. Thank you
    7
  470. Your video gave me peace, thank you! 😊
    7
  471. Very educative,especially to the care takers of dementia patients. They can understand the changed behaviour,unexpected responses of the ailing persons and be more patiently react to the good of the ailing family member
    7
  472. That is so upsetting.😢
    7
  473. This is an extremely true piece. I watched three family members go through this in nursing homes.
    7
  474. 2
    7
  475. I hate your style of presentation. The way most presenters succeed is: This is what I am going to tell you, and then, they tell your. Give me the 5 right away, and then go into the elaborations. Regarding feet, you left out the most important part. Daily wear fresh socks. Clean your shoes. Shoes are a harbinger of the germs you want a person to avoid.
    7
  476. Good informative to have.
    7
  477. Too many words. For maximum efficiency, play the video at 2x speed.
    7
  478. I never want to go to a nursing home.
    6
  479. Thanks for letting us know how important is knowledge you shared to us God 🙏 bless
    6
  480. No one ever thinks that they are going to grow old. No one ever thinks that they ever are going to have to go to a nursing home either. One day you wake up old. But never surrender to a nursing home! They are great at hiding all their problems, and secrets. You basically loose your your independence and freedoms. 😢
    6
  481. Excellent advice for anyone over 50
    6
  482. A true friend is not a pressure to keep. As you get older and you isolate yourself, your will to live goes away. This is a bunch of bs, never had to prove myself to nobody.
    6
  483. Very educating

    6
  495. How true. My mother was in a nursing home the last 11 years of her life. She was only supposed to be there for 3 weeks for rehab. But once she got there I couldn't get her out. I will ALWAYS REGRET her being there. But her doctors said she needed to be there and I couldn't fight it. Be very careful about signing ANY papers and stay out of one if you can.
    6
  496. All your observations are 100% on the spot, 88 years old living alone,from Pakistan.

  506. Walk ss long you can walk❤

  507. Upon waking up, I say a short prayer, stretch my arms, fingers as I sit in bed, take biscuit, drink water, then I rise up to make my coffee; this is my usual daily habit long before I become senior; I got this advice from my late mom before; thank you for this very informative advice ❤

  508. Death is a natural end of life. So what.

  521. As far as point #1, getting up from a chair is concerned, I need to lift the worry of some elderly people like me. How well you can get up out of a chair depends to the largest extent on the chair's ergonomic design. The 100 year old Bauhaus rule of functionality over looks has to be applied to design and build a chair that allows you to sit down and get up with equal ease. The test starts with sitting down in it. Do you get almost instant support when lowering your behind to sit down? Do you feel comfortable and well supported when seated and don't get back or leg pain after a short time of say 15 minutes. Now it's time to get up. Does it feel as if your behind is glued to the seat or back cushion? If it does then throw the damn thing out or if you just bought it return it and demand a refund. That chair is junk!! If you can get up without a problem or the need to grab the armrests for support, you've got a winner. That is a chair of probably perfect ergonomic design with you as the user and your health and well-being in mind. Btw: if you are thinking about buying new chairs, it's a good idea to test the chairs in the showroom as described above. Don't be fooled by looks.

  522. A friend in need is a nuisance 😊
    6
  523. Prunes are the best!
    6
  524. Interaction with others delays cognitive decline. We dont need a large circle of friends , but the isolated lifestyle of many older people is not positive.
    6
  525. Thank you . I appreciate your advice.
    6
  526. Great video,I’m 71 and very active,hope to keep it going for many years to come 💪

  527. 4:10 Almonds truly are a powerhouse for senior health! From improving skin elasticity to supporting brain function and strengthening bones, they offer incredible benefits for aging well. Margaret’s story is a great example of how a simple dietary change can make a big difference!
    6
  528. Great information, 🙏 thanks
    6
  529. Thank you for this important info. Thank you ! I felt the fatigue you mentioned and thought it was lack of exercise during the pandemic so I ignored it . But then I decided to get my annual routine exam and Dr found I had a heart problem . So after follow up they found I needed heart valve repair. My heart was repaired and now I'm back to normal.
    6
  530. I’m only 62 years young and already going to the senior center and recreation center for running and lifting weights!

  533. it is real, all you need is love... I am turning to 73, lost my husband 5 years ago, suddenly, we both did not expect it, I was in a deep shock for a year, he died 6 weeks before celebrating his 60th birthday, there were no clear signs at all, but I lost my beloved cat last week in 17th year, and with her I could see each step you said, thank you

    6
  537. I eat all day only pick healthy food. But love my food.
    6
  538. One thing I should add about rising from the floor is that it would be EASIER if you're NOT HEAVY Lugging around extra weight makes everything a bit harder.... Those who are FAT SHOULD shed it, and see how much BETTER you feel
    6
  539. This is a wonderful video and very helpful to take a strong and bold decision and stick to it for your peace of mind. Sometimes we waste our energy where we are not appreciated. This needs rethinking. Thank you for this insightful video. ❤❤

    6
  547. I’ve always heard about the importance of walking, but this video really helped me understand why it’s essential, especially as we age. The change in my posture and energy levels after adding daily walks to my routine has been remarkable. I feel less stiff, more flexible, and honestly, more confident. It's empowering to know that such an easy habit can make me feel younger!
    6
  548. This video really makes me feel grateful to have a roof over my head with running water.

  549. Am 81 and have walked 4 miles a day 5 times a week for 25 years at a fast pace.I do exercises and weights every second day. I was diagnosed with lymphoma and the hospital doctors were amazed with my fitness and said that this will get me through this sickness. I hope I will be completely cured god willing. 5 times a week for 25 years.

  550. I drink a cup of warm prune juice every morning, two hours later I’m in the bathroom.

  555. I would like to add politely two more areas that need daily cleaning for over-all better health, but I will mention only one, and that is the mouth, especially between the teeth. The other area you will know. Every day with warm soap and water for at least 20 seconds before rinsing well. <3

  556. When you reach 70, you will start seeing associates around you, dying one after another due to old age or sickness. Imagine having to attend their funeral wakes and feeling sorrowful that your impending turn would also come one day.

  557. Thanks for information. Well done. I’m a subscriber.

  558. 4 very useful information
    6
  559. Its odd. Ive even considered living in a shed in all weathers on apiece of land I own in Scotland. Its never occurred to me to think of a nursing home. In fact, I went on a dating channel and met and married a younger woman. Twenty years later we are still happy together. Maybe be ause shes Asian. Theyre much calmer people than British women. To a British woman, i suggest go and live in Asia, it will calm you down.

  618. I think its important to see, as in a mirror, how other People see us. Are we someone nice to spend time with, or we end up draining other people's energy? Something to think about. 🤔

  622. Wow, I had no idea that something as simple as diet could have such a huge impact on eye health! 🥦🥑 The breakdown of Omega-3s, Vitamin A, and hydration was super insightful—definitely going to add more salmon and carrots to my meals. Also, the connection between gut health and dry eyes was mind-blowing! 🤯 Thanks for sharing such valuable information. Looking forward to more content like this! 👀✨

  632. Sounds like the military @😊

  633. I can't go to pools. I get UTIs no matter how clean the pool. I had to give up swimming for that reason. Strength training is hard when you have rheumatoid arthritis. Hands cannot grip because they are crippled. I did Tai Chi for 2 years. I have such pain in my lower joints that it's hard to balance. I had to give it up. I cannot stand on one leg even for a few seconds. There is no place nearby where they have stationary bikes, where I can afford the dues. I practiced yoga from age 19 until I began to show symptoms of rheumatoid arthritis. The pain I experienced at first was excruciating. I cannot even describe it. It took years for an accurate diagnosis and finally a switch to a safe medication. Early on, a doctor put me on prednisone, a bone destroying steroid. Seriously, my body is a wreck.
    5
  634. (Continued) For those who are alone, you have the opportunity to strike up a relationship with Jesus. He will send God's Holy Spirit to be your company and will help your terminal existense. Make sure Jesus knows you. You do not want him to say to you, "Depart from me, I never knew you. We are approaching the end of time now. Confess your sins, repent (change your attitude toward God), ask Jesus for forgiveness for all your sins (He is in the Forgiving business), and start living with Him if you haven't already. He will ease the Transition. Praise and thank God always.
    5
  635. Good sleep is more important than we realize. 3:20 Definitely want to know what to avoid!
    5
  636. We’re looking at just the same situation you described for my 87 year old brother in law and his wife. They just moved into a residential facility and wondering if they belonged in an assisted living facility or nursing home. After Listening to your story we’ll think harder about that decision and do everything we can to keep them out of the nursing home.
    5
  637. I found this video incredibly insightful and thought-provoking. As someone who is navigating the complexities of retirement finances, I truly appreciate the practical advice and real-world examples shared here. The discussion on financial traps really resonated with me, highlighting challenges I've encountered over the years. This video not only shed light on the subtle ways our wealth can diminish over time but also empowered me to take proactive steps to safeguard my financial future. Thank you for providing such valuable guidance—it's exactly what many of us need to better manage our resources after 62.
    5
  638. I'll be 82 in early April and I can easily do all these things because I still ski, hike and backpack. You Must STAy in shape!
    5
  639. But but, 1st a person has to see their primary doctor & that may take a while, then you have to wait to see a specialized doctor and that can take months. My guess is hospital ER, except our local hospital stinks. Death ain't so bad for the believer in Jesus. We know the glory & beauty that awaits us.

    5
  647. Often wondered about sleeping on stomach which has always been my best position as can't sleep on my back?!. Excellent stuff thank you and certainly food for thought... Already don't eat late et C but still worth knowing and passing on to others. 😊
    5
  648. In my 76 years on this lousy planet i've found no matter where i move to . . . (move in or move out) . . . there are always challenges. Choose your moves carefully. But since we can never have enough facts to make perfect choices . . . take your chances. What else is there ???? Ecclesiastes 9:11 . . . I returned, and saw under the sun, that the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither yet bread to the wise, nor yet riches to men of understanding, nor yet favour to men of skill; but time and chance happeneth to them all.

  649. My remedy: Flax oil one tbl spoon and fish oil capsules after lunch, also olive oil on salad. I use flax meal in smoothies. Cutting carbs (not KETO fad diets) sweets, pastries, sugar in excess, etc. I hate prunes, oatmeal. Blue berries in moderation helps chronic conspitation. Flax meal in smoothies. Pro biotics reset digestion.

  660. At 85 years old, I am considering all the issues presented here because my dementia is underway. However, I was irritated by the several intrusions about subscribing and posting notices. I will never subscribe until I have seen the whole video!

  661. For the rest of the world outside of Trumpistan, 60-67 deg F is around 15.5 to 19.5 deg C.
    5
  662. The worst place. I visited my spouse (he was very sick and was not happy) in the nursing home. Assisted living facilities are not much better. Everything spoken is true. You lose your freedom and then your health. Showers had to be scheduled and infrequent. Nursing homes are dirty and disgusting. True true Exactly as spoken and even more.

  663. Just live together, why marry at this age ?

  664. Matthew,...But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.
    5
  665. What a bunch of bull, we always need friends, especially when we are older. We lose family, many friends leave forever but we need to embrace the ones that are still with us, not abandon them. We never know when we might needs them or when they might need us. Friends are blessing, not a curse and help our mental health
    5
  666. Provocative question. Is this really about 'peace' or is it about fear of burdening others? There's a difference. We need to talk more about how to age gracefully together.
    5
  667. Instead of remarrying, how about just living together?
    5
  668. Thank you. I will stay in my home until I really have to move into a nursing home.

  682. Despite my autoimmune illness and fatigue, I strive to live with purpose each day. I make time for a few minutes of moderate exercise and stretching to care for my health. I find fulfillment in reading research, deepening my faith, discovering prayers, and sharing them with friends. These daily practices give me strength and meaning.

  689. Being familiar with the realities of nursing homes, I have decided that when "my time" comes, I will invoke my Second Amendment rights and, therefore, eliminate any and all conflicts concerning my final disposition. This may be disconcerting to some, but it's my life and I really don't give a damn what others may think. Until that time, I shall enjoy what time I have remaining.

  690. Thank you for showing me the obvious…time passes without me noticing and I hope and pray that I can adjust to a new life

  692. I went to a Buddhist temple with my Japanese friends from Hiroshima a few years back. At the Shinnyoen a young attendant approached me near the ending of their chanting and he said he could feel the intensity of my thoughts and felt compelled to meet me? How do I turn whatever that is down? Most of my 72 years I’ve been an outsider. How to deal with that?! Was I meant to be alone, I wonder? Family seems to agree I’m just tolerated. All the while I’ve respectfully tolerated them in return. There’s no right. There’s no wrong. There just IS.

  693. Thank you. Learnt a lot

  698. My husband and i live in a retirement cottage in a retirement home with a large Frail Care nursing home. They have Midcare where you live with supervision but can cook or eat the meals they bring you. You can chose yourh close and have quite a lot of freedom. You live in quite a large suite with a fridge, microwave and your own furniture if you want to. The sharing usually comes when the patient needs more care. Usually some Altheimers , nappies and so forth. These patients are very awkward for family members to care for and bery tiring. We moved to a retirement home 15 years ago because my husband has muscular atrophy. We still manage in our cottage after all this time. If my husband has a weak period we get a caregiver from Frail care to shower him in the cottage. It is lovely in our cottage as we get help when we need it. I looked after my mother with cancer till she died and my mother in law with Altheimers. It was very tiring and because at different times we could never have holidays. It was exhausting. I would never put my only child through that. Our child has never forgotten us and we see him very often. He is helpful and loving. Old people are a lot of trouble and when the time comes i will gladly go to the Frail Care. I am now 80 and my husband 82

  699. I think this was written by either my mother, or the catholic church

  700. I was a state surveyor, monitoring nursing homes for state and federal compliance. I could write a book on the horrifying situation I’ve seen. Never put your loved one in a long term care facility. None of them are good, some only slightly better. Don’t institutionalize your loved one.
    4
  701. Thank you for this video. Alone at 78 I am still independent. I plan on staying in my home. I've known friends in a home where their families do not visit. 😢Guarantee they will make contact if there's a will left. Blessings to all in these lonely people in homes.❤

  712. 50% of residents in my area are in their 80’s , living independently without any support services . They are not bed ridden & can do all their jobs. Less than 5% go for walks or any other exercise . Strange ?

  713. Thank you so much for this video. Blessings to all, may we embrace the moments of grace and laughter that life brings.

  715. 2. I was doing well even at 80. My husband after a long illness last year, in which I had to spoon feed him, was very stressful. After he died I found I couldn’t do the things you spoke about. I’m now 83 and honestly I don’t feel like doing anything.

  716. Thank you very much for your time and effort you put into making this video Number 4 I would think that the genital area would be the most critical, as well as the waste elimination "orifices'"

  719. People are busy & have other videos they want to watch too. Give them facts without the boring examples of “James or Elizabeth” that elongates the video uneccessarily. The point is received without examples, it’s not rocket science afterall, respect our time so we don’t’ tune out mid video.

  723. Good grief. I had no idea. I'm in my late 70s and reasonably fit. Truly, the thought of residing in a Nursing Home fills me with dread! This video has opened my eyes, and I want to remain in my home. I have no mortgage, and I don't pay rent. I want to continue living here, perhaps with a little outside paid help when necessary, but NOT a nursing home! Thank you for your informative video!! I have subscribed!

  724. Thank you for the information, I learned things I didn't know but I now know and value..

  725. I used to work in a Nursing home as a security guard and front desk clerk. Let me just say that this video is correct. I often had residents tell me that the Administrator would often pilfer their money from their pensions, Social Security, 401s, IRAs, and VA benefits. Care in nursing homes is often a joke. The nurse's aides were often cheap labor, flown in from countries like Ghana, Philippines, Nigeria, and Guatemala who often sat around doing nothing and were very disrespectful to the residents.

  730. Don't put it down, put it away. That is a good plan. One thing, one among many I suppose, that I do is to be sure the bed is made up first thing. It is a gift to us that we unwrap each evening when we go to bed. Same sort of thing as getting up to a tidy kitchen. We have our apartment set up to please us. We love it. It is fresh and bright and easy to move around in. Then when family comes for a visit we are relaxed and can enjoy them to the fullest.

  732. While having 50 years of a military lower back injury (and still VA won't admit and pay up disability payments !), I was doing at age 50 100# 20 reps of all 28 muscle groups at the spa. Then years, covi, and restarting just on my Bowflex with starting 5# 20 reps in all directions of bodily movement for all of the core and muscle groups, 10#, 15# and up to 20#. Then (huh !) I get this half softball-sized muscle (tumor ?!) on my left butt cheek and pain. I just discovered sciatica ! What causes nerve pains and inflammation (and cortisol stress hormone weight gain! ?) - pinched or stretched nerves. Then (hmmm ?) I asked the question, "can sciatica be the fore-warner of having a mini-fracture in the hip bone ? " Yes ! Ugh ! So no more Bowflex (or never more !) until I heal up. Then I started doing the YouTube online chair yoga style of exercises. Now I am conducting some really extended chari yoga, isometric, stretch bands, stretching, and total body exercise. This is like this video of after 70 stop the walking or jogging and destroying yourself. This is versus my friends walking to the local park 1 mile, walk around the lake 2.2 miles, and then back home 1 mile for that 10,000 steps non-sense. He just got done with knee surgery ! He earned the name Mister Ferrari now. He is now coming to join in our apartment complex Wellness Workouts - conducted by me ! Proper nutrition, proper health, how to deal with high blood pressure, high blood sugar, edema of the legs syndromes (lymph system drainage), defatting the inner visceral fat around/in the organs, hard breathing, non-alcoholic and alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD/AFLD), reducing LDL cholesterol/increase HDL cholesterol, greater fat metabolism (lipolysis), losing belly, hip, and leg adipose body fat ... trim down, core up, and have proper mature flexibility and posture.

  741. While this video points out some important triggers, isn't it a bit too alarmist? Shouldn't we focus more on prevention and healthy lifestyle choices rather than fear? What if some of these triggers can be managed with better daily habits? What do you think?🤔🤔

I only drive when I need to carry heavy items..I m recovering from a wrist injury… I think I had a hairline fracture in my left wrist from a hard fall on 2-15-2025… today is day 25… I was walking home from the gym and I tried to throw a baseball over a high fence ..with heavy bags in my left hand.. I went flying and fell on my left hip and wrist… today my wrist is better.. I’m able to lift a 3 pound weight in my left hand… on 2-15-25 at the gym i was able to push 90 pounds on the bench press… I’m going to train and work up to the 90 pounds or more… I think the exercise and healthy eating keeps my bones strong,,

  756. I think that at some stage of life you have to accept that you need to move to a nursing home and it is also a case of "mind over matter" Accept before hand that life ain't going to be the same again Some of the regrets haven't anything to do with the nursing home....it is not the nursing home at fault if your family isn't visiting anymore.......maybe it is your own negative attitude that doesn't want your grandchildren to visit you anymore. Allot of residents in nursing homes still has a meaning full life,why not you? I hope that after the "growing pains" is over that you will be very happy in the nursing home

  770. 16:45 Hello everyone, if you think that aging means giving up intimacy or those private moments, think again! Science proves the opposite: maintaining this simple habit – even just with yourself – can bring benefits beyond your imagination. From protecting prostate health, boosting heart function, improving bladder control, to enhancing mental well-being and sleep – it’s not just about pleasure, it’s a key to living healthier in your later years. Imagine: less stress, better sleep, a stronger body – all from a natural habit anyone can embrace. Don’t let outdated stereotypes stop you from taking care of yourself. Age isn’t a barrier; it’s a chance to understand your body better and live well. So, give it a try and feel the difference – you deserve it! What do you think about these benefits? Let me know!

During the visit I opened a dresser drawer and discovered it was FILLED with electric bills going back over 30 years. All in their original envelopes in neat rows. Included were years worth of bills from an apartment in another state that she moved from 20+ years before.

  789. I have slowed down at 76. Who does not? I can still not only walk quickly but also run with my dog as well as manage 20 press ups and planks. I believe that what we do in the crucial years of the 40s and 50s predicts your physical and maybe mental health. I have always been a keen cyclist and during those crucial years used to cycle up to the top of the high peaks every other day. But my balance is not good but I have one leg slightly shorter than the other and so am naturally unbalanced. Balance is perfect whilst on the bike.

  793. Why are cashews not the best choice for older adults??? Cashews contain a high amount of oxalates, which can contribute to the formation of kidney stones, a common issue in older adults. For those with a history of kidney stones or kidney problems, cashews may increase the risk of developing these painful deposits. Additionally, compared to other nuts, cashews have a relatively higher carbohydrate content, which can cause a slight increase in blood sugar levels—something to be mindful of for older adults managing diabetes. They also contain a lot of calories and fat, which can lead to overeating and unwanted weight gain.

  799. 1:36 This message resonated deeply with me. I always believed family would take care of me in my later years, but life doesn’t always work out that way. Financial independence has given me peace of mind and allowed me to live on my own terms. If there’s one lesson I would pass on to younger generations, it’s to build your own financial safety net as early as possible.

  805. I’m 78 and have suffered deafness for around 50 years , I use hearing aids which a huge help and can cope with most situations pretty well. However, due to the deafness talking loud in groups can blindside me, if I am not very careful. The problem is I find it very hard to detect myself, that is the truth. My wife will prompt me about about it which does help but it is the one thing that really undermines my social confidence ; purely because it is so hard to self detect.

  810. Hello! I stay limber with my Inversion Board. The first time I used it 8 years ago, U felt the vertebrae in my back stretch gently apart, releasing a lifetime of gravity from my spine, and I can touch the floors with my hands from a standing position. Besides the gentle stretch, lymphatuc fluid is distributed throughout the body and this is very beneficial for health and improving the mood. The brain loves hanging upside down and mental acuity is also improved. A daily walk with gentle stretching beforehand is a wonderful routine for staying young. I am 68. Thanks for another great video!

  819. I'm 70 and can do all of the things, but I noticed it's getting borderline with some of them. I noticed that on last years vacation when I barely got up from a beach chair, or the lower toilets at the resort. Since then I started working out again, not in a gym, just do some exercise and strenght training at home. I already can feel a difference. My mental fitness seems to be fine, thought I struggle off and on with names. I do crossword puzzles, word games and traffic games online. I remember conversations, even from weeks ago. Right now I learn Spanish online with Duolingo. I also love to read, mostly on my tablet, due to eye problems. The writing in some books is quite small.

  853. I wear navy shirts and carpenter's jeans, making me look like I'm a workman of some sort. It's about all I wear. The clothes wear well, hold up for many years. It's an easy way to look presentable. I don't mind looking like a worker. Those who are put off by the idea are probably not people I'd want to hang around with anyway.

  854. I would rather retire at home than to move in nursing home.. just hire a caregiver to take care of you.. always keep your mind sharp to prevent dementia and alzheimers.. always have a positive thinking to prevent being so grumpy or grouchy in life.. Remember, your life depends on your own decisions.. God bless everyone..

  856. My wake-up call was when my wife broke her leg and had to go in. She could have learned to walk again, but everyone was afraid to let her because the government made required reporting every fall, so they stopped getting her out of the wheelchair, and the insurance that was supposed to pay ended after 20 days and then 10000 dolars a month. 6

  885. I am 82 and can understand and agree with your words of wisdom . My mother went to a nursing home when she turned 88 having suffered from dementia . I witnessed and thought about all the issues you spoke about . she died at 91 . it is surprising how the body deteriorates when when its motivation to struggle to live is gone . there has to be a better system for nursing homes .because once our independence is gone so is our reason for living . I am also aware that the aged care facilities are money making enterprises and the need for profit motive is greater than the need for compassion .

  887. I understand what you are saying but there are some additional factors to consider. My 97 year old Mother-in-Law has been in "care" for several months. The people who look after her are brilliant and caring. Her surroundings are lovely and anything she needs is readily at hand. The reality is that she is immobile and can only move with great difficulty and pain, almost blind and deaf and unable to wipe her own bum. Apart from being in constant pain, requiring morphine patches which cause delusion etc. she is not what you could say is remotely a happy individual. I believe that individuals should be allowed to access "end of life" options in such situations. As a once upon the time Veterinarian I would have been prosecuted for animal cruelty if I had subjected any of my animal patients to the indignity and pain suffered by my dear old MIL.

  888. Am so glad I'm living independently. I do not depend on them especially financially. I limit my encounters with them. I observe they come to me espevially when they need something from me. When I need help I ask other people not them. I pay other people's services. It is more comfortable for me.
    3
  889. I agreed and like your video. I am doing some of the habits as mentioned by you and help a lot even I have back pain and knees pain which is not always. And these habits help me to declutter at the same time ( no more in case attitude)

  900. I don't recognise any of the features you're talking about! We're a large group of friends between our mid 60s and late 70s. All retired, not rich. Kept busy with our families and social lives, trips out and holidays. Many of us go back to friendships from school or college so basically we have so much history between us with all life's ups and downs. Of course, we're there for one another. Our conversations are rich in banter, wit and cheeky one-liners. Without exception we look after our appearances and behaviour just as we always did, thankfully we've all calmed down a bit. True to say some of us are deaf and have medical issues but we don't harp on about them. A conversation about hospital appointments is never one worth having! We have lost some friends to alcohol abuse. Anyway, life is great! Our shared interests going back decades tend to be based on music culture of many genres, sport, pubs, history, politics, art, literature. Overall the live music scene keeps us sharp. No more Glastonbury but we follow more local acts who are thick on the ground. We are lucky to have each other and we know it. Keep doing the things you always loved doing! There's no need to stop!!

  905. The information presented is 100% true. I have a better idea. Find 3-4 friends to share a house or apartment with. Plan for using each persons strength. Some like to cook, clean, plan activities etc. what the group cannot do the four of you can hire what you need. Yes, there will be issues but organize it like a democracy. Have meetings solve conflicts. Use it to keep growing and enjoying life.

  906. In my own opinion as long as you enjoy to live by yourself and can afford to do with out the help of other it’s better to stay in your house. You will be happy and decide what you do everyday to make yourself happy. And as long as you still can do your own.

  911. My mom had to go to a nursing home due to severe injuries from a car accident. Her life became a nightmare. She needed help for just about everything. There was never enough staff. Meals were mediocre at best. Her days were spent watching tv all day. There was a succession of roommates, each one worse than the rest. Once outgoing and social, she became withdrawn and depressed. I would never go willingly to a nursing home.

  913. I don't know to many people who volunteer to move to a nursing home. Usually situation force the move. I don't understand people moving to a 55+facilitys ?????? Insane or an assisted living. I have been a caregiver for 35 years and work in many places like this. I now own a care home residential facility. And some of the people bring the mom or dad because they just don't want to care for them. Their life is full and taking care of the parents is on the way on their traveling social life style etc. simple as that. Others try their best but because of the care required like dementia, Alzheimer MS or a 24 care condition they had to make the move. I'm really surprised a man like the one speaking on this video voluntarily sign in to live in a place like this. When you visit nursing homes you find people that are really unable to live alone. What this guy is probably referring is what is call assisted living sounds more like.

  917. Nobody likes going to a nursing home . But when one can’t take care of themselves and their love ones just aren’t able to , with not much savings , what to do ? My husband’s high school friends who are cops told him so many elderlies died alone in their own homes during welfare checks. Sad…..

  946. Be careful who you choose as power as attorney. Family members often wear masks to stay in your good graces but deep down want what you promised them in your personal will. Make sure you stipulate to the power of attorneys that you hold all the cards while you are in sound mind and body. Never give full control over your life to another. Real love comes in many forms and unfortunately it disguises itself as love when in fact it is greed.

  965. This advice is great, but let’s be honest—happiness after 65 is a privilege, not just a mindset! Not everyone has the health, money, or family support to 'prioritize joy.' What about seniors struggling with medical bills or loneliness despite their efforts? This video oversimplifies things. Thoughts?" This will likely spark a mix of agreement and debate, driving engagement. Want something even more provocative?

  966. Lol, what is this video, all kids respect their parents, and it's in the Bible. We followed everything all our parents request till they pass away and even after they pass, even if it hurts us their kids. I never disobeyed my parents, my father passed away and even his death, I honored his wishes. But my mother lied for years to me and I can't accept it anymore so walked away and never be part of her life. But I respect her but I can't be connected to her life anymore.

  969. As long as you can safely function and take care of yourself in your home, you stay living in your home. Hopefully you have family or friend or neighbor to help when you need it or ways to get your food or see a doctor. Nursing homes are for people whose health has deteriorated to the point they cannot take care of themselves anymore and/or have no one to assist them and can't live safely on their own. Or you have medical issues that require nursing home care. BUT as long as you can stay in your home and provide for yourself whichever way you can, you should always stay in your own home. My mother is 92 and still in her house. I live 3 doors away and I do her laundry, buy her groceries, bring her to the doctor, help her around the house when she needs it. She can still bathe, cook, basic cleaning, dress, etc. on her own. We wouldn't consider sending her to a nursing home when she can still be self sufficient even with help. STAY AWAY from the nursing homes as long as you can. My father had to be put in one because we couldn't take care of him anymore due to he was numb from the waste down and couldn't even get out of his chair anymore. My mother was too old to care for him the way he needed. It was a hard decision but we had no choice. He was stable at home, but 10 months after being in the nurs. home he had died. They allowed a small infection on his foot to fester and did not send him to the hospital when it was growing and wouldn't heal. It got into his bone and after that he just kept deteriorating. He hated it there, sharing a room with another person who was not friendly with just a curtain between them. There's a lot wrong with these nursing homes and it is so sad. I agree with everything that is said in the video. Stay home as long as you can, or if a family member can help or you can move in with them, do it!! Nurs Home should be a LAST RESORT in your care.

  1010. lol, my children act like i don 't deserve a life of my own. although i worked 3 jobs taking caring of myself, 2 children and my mother, i squeezed some time for myself. I received my college degrees and had a male companion. after my children got grown things changed. it seem like they were jealous of me i have not seen my son in over 10yrs. and only talked with him on the phone brefly after my ex husband, their father died. my son wanted to let me know he was not going to funeral.so don't expect to see him there. my daughter is with me now because i was told by emergency room and polices that she was gang raped and was beaten almost to death. i have been taking care of her since 2020. she is unable to take care of herself at this time. And just last year, she started mentioning me as her mother. all these years she refered to me as that lady. at the end of 2020 she just remembered her name etc. God is good to me. As a senior, i was able to get a job to take care of us both.

  1017. Great advice. In this age of Covid especially, a nursing home would be even less of an attractive option than you so well explained. Financially, as you mention, for many people, leaving would not be an option. Essentially in a care facility, you once again revert to babyhood -- giving up your independence for dependency, loss of control, loss of privacy, loss of finances, loss of the exercise you get in normal life. Babyhood is just fine and suitable for babies but not at all fine, not at all suitable, for adults and aged persons. A child has a life ahead of them; an elderly person has a death ahead. If they can maintain a roof to live under, with independence and control, hiring help when needed, they can always find some goals and purposes ... but all that goes out the window if they allow themselves to become infantilized. As far as end of life issues, no one needs a gatekeeper, and you know what I mean. Everyone deserves to choose how long they will live, how they will die, and to make their chosen exit with dignity and professional assistance. Doctors that don't get this don't deserve to be called doctors.

I also found that important to clean out the wardrobe from time to time and make room for something new and fashionable. It doesn’t need to be expensive, just a style I will able to mix and match with my old favourites. I will be 75 years old in couples of months, cutting back on makeup, but I always looked after my skin, (some people think I am 55) and I still love my lipstick 💄 and planning to grow old gracefully.

  1059. 9:19' Honestly, a nursing home is not a place anyone really wants to go, but sometimes, there’s no other choice. There, you have meals provided, nurses to take care of you, but it lacks the warmth of family, the touch of a loved one’s hand. Many seniors spend their days in loneliness, just hoping for a visit. I truly hope that society will pay more attention to the elderly so they don’t feel forgotten. And for those who are in nursing homes, I just wish them peace in their hearts, someone to talk to, and meaningful days in their final years. ❤👴👵🌿

  1130. I am 58 years old, and intend to live a long healthy life. I swore to myself, and my two young adult children, that I was not going to be a physical or financial burden to them. In life, there are no guarantees and the future is unpredictable, but I made a conscious and deliberate decision to to keep my mind, body, and finances intact and healthy for as long as I live. NO NURSING HOME FOR ME! 😉

But, after watching this video, I now want to declutter those I myself kept but hv not used in ages! Thank you so much! P/s Declutter too our laptops and handphones - I'd one round after I stopped work 2+ years ago.. it was a very good feel! Laptop storage only for what I needed !

  1149. Everything but everything revolves around money for the nursing home, I have seen too many times to ever go to a nursing home, what is mentioned here should be seriously taken into account before even thinking of it especially the financial side of it, your money is good for the nursing home's management income, not that the management really care so much about you. Luckily my parents, now already passed away, did not make that fatal mistake.

  1170. 6 We re not in a care home but when my husband retired and we moved backed to our home town a year later he convinced me to buy a condo inststead of a stand alone house like we we were living in.. I understood his reasons. It was getting too difficult to shovel the snow off the sidewalks, driveway and rooftop. Winter driving was getting dangerous with all the ice. And we had a second summer residence 17 hours drive away. Maintaining two places was simply too much let alone opening and closing the cottage so far away. So, even tho we only have the condo which is at least only 45 minutes away from the cottage it isn’t. Seven months of winter in condo living after, well it’s been at least 25 years of having our own home. I feel like a hamster in a cage. Even if we own it we still have to put up with difficulties which as the 4 year old twins that visits Grampa above us every weekends and bring their dogs. Then there’s the neighbour who blares her rock and roll when she visits her parents to help clean and do errands.So, there are a couple of warnings if you’re thinking of moving into something smaller like a condominium or an apartment because you think it might be easier to manage, think twice about those trade offs.

  1181. Have you called a retirement home, a nursing home? Usually a nursing home is necessary when you need ongoing medical help. A retirement home is usually a place people go when they get overwhelmed with keeping a house and preparing their meals.

  1189. I was working as a homesupport worker and working to clients home. I cooked healthy foods for them. Elderly people living in facilities less freedom of choices like favorite foods, friends and family members cannot stay over just to visit only. The best choices not to sell their house and get a 24/7 workers to have their freedom. They can go out with the workers, go for a walk, get groceries together and have fun to see an events. Also don't think paying for the workers is expensive because it's about their safety and enjoy their life everyday as they could. Money is just a tool just spend it wisely for their needs. Because that is a good reason why we save money for to spend when we get older. If you don't use it for your own good, then when we die without a will the govt will take it and that is the law in Canada. My good advice eat healthy foods, stay away from bad carbohydrates, drink 8 glasses of water,, take vitamin like Centrum, Vitamin C, check blood pressure regularly, check blood glucose. It is very important to purchase a machine. Everyday before meal check the blood pressure and blood glucose than paying health insurance every month. Good hobbies like gardening, knitting, crochet, listen to a favorite music, writing simple healthy recipes, 20mins mild exercise meet good people in the community. See a doctor and a dentist regularly. Doing a household chores is a good exercise and natural therapy. I retired earlier because I was sick of blood pressure and blood glucose and doctors refused to give me medication because it was borderline and I suffered and it was ups and downs. I I prayed to God and did a research in the internet a good advice. I am taking Vit C and It helped me to be healthy again and I went for a walk at least 1 hour. I am living alone but many things to do and make me busy everyday. I do like playing my ukulele, knitting, sewing, reading Bible, listening from classic musics, cooking healthy foods, gardening, do household chores, sharing good ideas to good friends and community friends, writing song lyrics, etc. We have many opportunities in life. When I seen a challenge person trying to be independent gives more courage in life and very important don't give up your hope and I don't feel bored in life at all. ❤❤❤❤

Till today not comforted about his last 1& half year slow process of declining.and now I am suffering from deadly sleep loss.Nothing is helping me to sleep nicely in night. No medical advise no medication is useful now.Dont know what to do?

  1204. 5:07 This video is truly inspiring and filled with valuable wisdom! I sincerely appreciate how each lesson is presented with real-life examples and deep insights. The point that resonated with me the most is “Prioritize connection over loneliness.” It’s a powerful reminder that happiness in our later years isn’t just about personal well-being but also about the relationships we nurture. Making an effort to stay connected, reach out, and engage with others can truly transform our lives. Thank you for creating such meaningful content! I’m sure many people will find encouragement and motivation from these lessons. ❤

  1236. Having friends talkreal loud in restaurants has been a large problem. You get uncomfortable thinking someone will do or say something. Plus its very irritating. Clean hands, face isa must. Ware those disposable vinyl gloves in stores, work. Have "Coolmints " with you to ease that dog breath. A shower does help. Have a laundry service...drop it off ,pick it up saves so much time.

  1243. Some of the foods you mentioned do not work. Super greens in the vegetable aisle is the best roughage. Kale is too harsh for me. But those super greens leaf vegetables are so great. Just take a handful, put in a bowl with your favorite salad dressing and voila. Or just eat some leaves throughout the day if you like. Don’t make it a big deal by buying too many things or making an elaborate salad. Just grab it and eat it. That’s what middle easterners do. Constipation is rampant in Western countries

  1262. The problem with a whole lot of nursing homes is the lack of pay brings poor uncaring and unskilled nurses. Unless you have a good person that wants to care for a person that needs them and has the right compassion. Those kinds of people exists, but are not the case for most that work in them. I have seen nurces push resisents out of the way, handling them harshly, very uncaring attitudes. If you can avoid a nursing home, avoid them at all costs. To the nursing homes that see that each resident is cared for, God bless you. To those that treat residents poorly, you deserve any hardship that comes.

  1271. This is all so.true.If the person has the funds a personal trainer can come to the home and can help regain the strength of an elderly person. That person also needs a supportive person to help them to leave if they want to. It can be difficult yet doable with the proper motivation that the supportive person and trainer can help with.

It speaks so honestly about the realities of aging, and for the first time, I feel like someone truly understands what it's like to grow older. The points about energy levels, shifting social circles, and changes in self-perception really hit home. I’ve experienced many of these things, but hearing them articulated so thoughtfully gives me a new perspective. I also loved how the video emphasized embracing age with confidence and finding new purposes in life—it’s reassuring to know that growing older doesn’t mean fading away, but rather evolving. Thank you for such a refreshing and empowering message.

  1300. Number five. One item that should be mentioned is a sense of purpose. We live seven or eight decades trying to keep our lives and our families in good stead - physically, emotionally, spiritually - because we have a drive to do so. In my 70s I noticed a reduction of that drive. It is a sort of spiritual fatigue. Many times I have said that immortality is a young person's dream. As we age death becomes more of a promise than a threat: we don't have to do this forever. That is not incompatible with the goal of longevity, but it is a factor in determining when we say it is time to go home. To quote my hero, Elmer Fudd: "West and wewaxation at wast!"

  1337. Nursing homes should always be a last resort!!!!!!! Do everything for yourself that you can, for as long as you can. then and only then consider other alternatives. If you are lonely, get out ,seek others, visit a church, a mall, or a park. speak to strangers, if you can volunteer, some chores can be done sitting down. KEEP MOVING, IT IS THE GREATEST GIFT YOU CAN GIVE YOURSELF! GOD BLESS! ONE AND ALL! if

  1372. #4 I have worked in nursing homes in two states and have witnessed this with virtually every person and when they realize that they are "just waiting", it is just waiting to die. There are two differences between prison and a nursing home: 1) nursing homes have better looking furniture, 2) prisons have better food-WAY BETTER food !! Sooner or later we all die; better at home than in a cage.

  1378. Why did your children put you in nursing home they don’t want to take care of you and your age is not yet too old to take care thry must only see you everyday of your situation if your okay and I read what you said in your own house you can do what you want and you’re still strong cuz you can walk outside anytime you want you can cook what you want to eat so I’m thinking why they bring you in nursing home as if you’re already a disable. But they don’t know you want their love and care from them.

  1439. WOW!! I'll be 77 in April and I feel GREAT and have always walked fast and still do - sometimes I run walk and have been riding my bike 14 miles a day every day I can - recently didn't ride bc the wind was over 50-70 mph - my grip is no good but it has never been good - I have had 8 surgeries bilateral on my wrists - I have had a few times my balance is not what it used to be - and I can walk easier if I don't look down which is a habit that we seem to do to make sure we don't trip over something - it really feels good to look up when walking. All my friends and close family are all dead already - Quality of living is more important than living longer - but I feel like I will live to be 100 - and I NEVER SLEEP :( I am sharp and keep busy giving more than I take - GOD BLESS

  1458. Declining Health and Bodily Changes Many physical functions deteriorate with age, leading to chronic conditions and reduced mobility. Increasing Feelings of Isolation Social circles often shrink due to friends moving away or passing on, which can lead to loneliness. Psychological Barriers to Accepting Age Denial or fear of aging can prevent individuals from finding peace and adapting to new realities. Regrets for Missed Opportunities Looking back, some older adults wish they had taken more risks or pursued their dreams when they were younger. Heightened Awareness of Time and Impermanence Recognizing that life is finite can encourage people to value each moment and focus on meaningful experiences.

I went to Vocational School at 17 years old, I was finished at 19,well anyway I did my externship at 19, I witnessed at a Nursing Home a women who was mad at a woman in a wheelchair,She pushed that women,so hard down the hall, moreover I witness that,and the first thing I said, I do not want to work with people like that,it really made me mad,so I totally went into a different field, and went back to School in Philadelphia,for dietary,and landed a job,for five years working in the kitchen,and I enjoyed it,so I didn't get back into Nursing until years later.

  1472. Is just hard to accept seeing myself in the "Convalescent Care Home". I have seen the operations going on inside those "Nursing Homes". My mom, my in law. Those nursing staffers seems to care for the first few months. But turns out uncaring after. Visiting my mother for a year or so. Same routine toward my in laws. Same situations point to the "Nursing Home employees". I will not go to any "Nursing Home"! Your health will deteriorate fast. And your family won`t care what soever. Your history.! Sorry to say, but true.

Many younger people are dismissed ve and rude or think oldies have nothing good to say! Ever even let oldies talk! 3. Sameabout clothing! Ditto younger cloud dress filthy but we seniors should dress well! Change shirts everyday and also underwear’s! 4 Complaining! Don’t talk much with younger crowd. Talk to people who you like any way younger crowd doesn’t care to talk with you. Talk when you are asked! Talk everything which is PC correct!

  1534. Walking is not enough for a long and healthy life. Strength training: Muscle loss is a significant threat to independence as you age. Strength training helps preserve muscle mass, bone density, and metabolism [03:55]. Balance training: Balance training is essential to prevent falls, a major risk for older adults. Simple exercises can significantly improve stability [02:21]. Mental and social activity: Mental sharpness and emotional well-being are vital for longevity. Staying engaged socially and mentally keeps you young [06:56].

I've seen the elderly staring blankly out of windows and sitting quietly in a common area surrounded by other people seated quietly and staring into space. I made a decision that when I become too feeble to care for myself, it will be time for me to leave this world completely. There is no way I will allow myself to end up in a hell hole like that.

  1582. the reality is that as we get old probably 00% percent of people deal with all of the regrets. Our children move on with their lives, families separate and move away. The times of families taking care of their elderly are pretty much gone. Our bodies fail and we for most of us lose at least some of our mental sharpness. My biggest fear is my loss of privacy and the ability to do things for myself. I have always said I will never live in a nursing hoome. I'd rather die alone up the the woods than be comfined to a nursing home. Living in a nursing home is very little different than being in jail.

  1600. This man is not lien at all iam in rehab in that just as bad i always try to do my exercises by myself because once you're insurance runs out they will ask you to either leave or become a full time residence and if you do . the only time you get pt is once every third quarter and they take all of your money because iam not able to stand or walk for periods of time that i need to i have to stay here until i get better so i started doing my on pt on my own they dont like that and ask me to get someone to be there with me when i do my exercises i said these people dont want to do the jobs that they get paid to do and iam not going to sat around waiting on these lazy people to help me i know when i need to sit down for a rest 😮

  1609. I used to be an advocate for my ex-husband and a few more elderly at a nursing home in Illinois. The director was scared to death off my ex , cause he was the President of the residents and made me look up all laws that he applied against nursing homes, protecting their own residents. After his passing, the nursing home lost volunteers, their garden and their essence! Another shit hole men made , although Governor Pritzker had him on a “secret” board for the elderly , that still exists ! He was mentally fit to fix problems, from mechanical problems to the top as a former drill sergeant and business owner. Am sure the “former” director of that nursing home is thinking about every conversation he had with her on a consistent basis. Kurt lives in her head for FREE!

  1613. Here is a cautionary tale. My MIL is 92. She had been living in her own home alone and we thought she was managing ok because that is what she told us. Then last Oct. she had some kind of episode and went to the hospital. She was having a lot of difficulty walking. She went to a re-hab/nursing home to get PT, supposedly, to strengthen her legs. That didn't last too long. As she used up the time that Medicare would pay for, it became clear she could not live on her own any longer and would need to stay in the nursing home. She is in PA and her sons are in MD and CA. She has almost no family around her. We had to sell her house for a pittance, the nursing home took that, they have taken her SS as well. She told us she had insurance to bury her, but it is all expired. For years, we tried to get her to move in with us or with her other son, but she told us to mind our own business. She didn't want to be a burden on anyone. Well now she is a huge burden because we have to come up with the thousands of dollars it will take to bury her as well as now supplying her with a phone and spending money and anything thing else she needs. Had she moved in with her son in MD as she was asked to do, she could have sold her house and kept the money and would have still had her SS. She would have had family around that could have made sure she was getting up and walking around every day and was getting proper nutrition., and participated in daily family life instead of sitting in her house day in and day out watching TV. Her stubbornness has cost her to lose everything. She is now complaining that she doesn't like the nursing home and wants out. Out to where? Her house is gone, her money is gone. She refuses to move to CA and her son in MD now has an ill wife he is caring for. My husband has a huge amount of guilt now because she is in a nursing home and there is nothing he can do about it. He is too far away to visit more than once a year or so. It is a huge mess and it is all her doing. So please, as you get older, if your kids or family members ask you to come live with them, please consider doing it because the alternative is not good. My MIL no longer gets PT and they have been on covid lock down for months now and she isn't even allowed to venture out of her room. She can only get someone to take her for a walk down the hall once in a while and she hates the food. Yes, we all want to be independent for our whole life, but sometimes it isn't possible. So please, think twice before you dig your heels in and refuse help from your family. She will die in there alone because she didn't want to give up her independence. Now she has given up everything. Personally, I would rather give up my independence and be around people who love me than to die alone in a home because I was too proud to accept help from my kids.

  1629. I live in a nurse home. It is like you said. Someone was fooling with my dressers and they took out my spy camera . I had a picture it was 14 years. The bed that wasn't sleeping in took it. She decided I was spy on them. That was a picture I wanted to keep. It was gone and I had no proof.

  1631. I made mistakes taking care of my Dad. I'm 60 now and am starting to develop health problems. If I should have a debilitating stroke; I could only hope that my mind would just be "soup". Feelings of independence or importance may not exist. I don't have any kids, so there's no choice anyway. I would say a nursing home under those circumstances is nothing more than a necessary option.

  1657. After my mother had died, my father wanted to go into a nursing home. He thrived there, went every day for a walk, and no, he didn't need permission or assistance, contrary to what's said at 1:46 We children visted him often. I had to shift my two weekly calls to him.from the weekend into the week, because he was busy and had visitors on the weekend. His room had his books, his artwork, and his photo books. He built his regular schedule around the scheduled meal times with the other people on his station.

Don’t put your loved ones in a nursing home. I cared for my husband for over 18 years and I promised him I would keep him at home. So glad I did. God helped me during that process.

  1757. So sorry I had to place my daughter in a nursing facility. Biggest regret of my life! They don’t give a crap about anybody, they take hours to clean the patient which accounts for stager 4 ulcers! They don’t feed the patient once it becomes obvious no visitors come by. So they go do something else. I once went unexpectedly at 8pm and they were cleaning her up. They told me they were very busy. I visited I the next day at 11 am and they were cleaning her up. So that’s 15 hours she was left in soiled diapers. I had a group visit her from my congregation and they told me they found her completely naked and the A/C was blowing very strong. She was half frozen! So please don’t put your loved one in a facility, if you do, visit often or ask friends to drop by to check on them….otherwise they will surely be neglected. Didn’t mention the bruised face of her roommate. They told me she fell out of bed! Oh, I was not allowed to bring a cell phone into the room. BEWARE YOU ALL!

  1769. Russian conditions for peace will not substantially change. Zelensky wants to continue fighting, surely this will only allow Russia to occupy more land. Russia is winning overall and can replace causalities which Ukraine has great difficulty doing. Europe will not send their troops to help Ukraine because they do not want to start a war WW 3 with Russia. Ukraine by itself cannot win this war, why continue the deaths and destruction of cities when RUSSIAN CONDITIONS FOR PEACE WILL NOT SUBSTANTIALLY CHANGE. Trump accepts this inevitability, about time Europe does too. Zelensky is obsessive about hopelessly continuing to fight, it clouds his mind and to even suggest he could discuss a peace treaty coolly and intelligently is beyond his capacity. Surely he must consider retiring.

  1779. No one wants to live in a nursing home. But when you can't take care for yourself anymore, you have too. But nursing homes can't take care for you either. On the contrary. Nursing homes kill you with over medication.

  1802. My father in law was placed in one for rehabilitation after a serious illness . It was not ment to be for the rest of his life. Unfortunately the last six months of his life was spent between hospitals and there. The last few days of his life my wife and I spent many hours and days there. I noticed how the residents looked like zombies. Moving to meals, sitting in community areas. Hopelessly locking at the wall. That is when it hit me, these places are nothing but human junk yards. Places that families place their elderly while waiting for them to die. So sad a nursing home is that way because corporations only see profits over human dignity. 😢

  1836. Yes, nursing homes are the best option for someone who is bedridden with medical issues such as strokes, dementia, advanced age, or have no family to take care of them, etc. There are some nursing homes that provide good medical care. You have to research and visit these places before placing a person in a facility. You should have someone visit on a regular basis to check on their care. Unless the resident is on Medicaid, expect to pay about $10,000 per month.

  1837. I advocate aging gracefully and dignified in your own home not in a nursing home or old age home.

  1858. I am 83 at present 84 in December and living on my own and managing very well. Still driving and able to keep up with all the appointments.the decision to move to a retirement facility has been suggested to me by , friends , relatives and people I meet who keep asking so when are you moving , moving where I say I will go in a BOX from here. Which of course makes us all laugh but seriously I say while you can manage your meals and all normal day to day activities DO NOT MOVE❤️❤️❤️❤️

  1872. I so have appreciated your openness about your moving into a nursing Home and your reaction to all of it. These are some of my thoughts, after living alone and though maybe very limited, at least you have freedom to do necessary things when you choose. Also still get family and visitors to come. It’s certainly made me think more that I would be so unhappy where I was timed for everything and most likely the visiting would drop off. Thank you. So sorry it’s now hard going for you.

They dont jave no damn problem keeping the money you paied them after you die instead of given it back to your family because alot of people dont have to use their instead co for long periods of time 😮

  1928. 👍👍Truth about old age care homes (not about Nursing homes, as described in the title of the video). Old age care homes are hell - as hell as "drug re-habitation" centers are. Drug re-habitation centers feed their patients with mild intoxicants - so do these "old age" care homes - to let their old occupants lesser and lesser bothersome..

  1933. Nursing homes are a money racket. It's all about the insurance money they are rood to visitors the one my mother was at anyway. I seen things that made me want to loose it on some of the workers there but I would be arrested. They would take older human angels in wheel chairs shove them in corners trap them in with carts set some in chairs in visiting rooms in uncomfortable chairs made out of plastic seats with out cushions. I can't text anymore it's bringing back the anxiety i had to deal with my poor mother. She was pute in there for having surgery on her ankle rods were pute in by a lousy surgeon it got infected because the jerk messed it up I took her to his office of course they said he was on vacation i told his male nurse it had puss coming out staples they didn't do nothing to clean it i couldn't bring her where i lived i was living in a older mobil home with my kids no room i was overwhelmed. With guilt so I had to take her back to the hell hole went back to see her eyes all milky the infection killed her the nurses obviously didn't keep it clean it got septic. Don't take the elderly to hell on earth please. Oh and the surgeon never did anything to help her my poor mother. I love her so much And miss her.😢

  1978. Change is hard, but necessary. Getting rid of things no longer useful, declutterring our environment to free up our Peace of Mind, allows us to also be more safe from slips and falls as we age. Less clutter means more space to travel in and around from room to room more easily! Having less stuff to dust off also keeps the room air cleaner. The junk being Out of Sight - Out of Mind, allows us to create more real time memories and enjoy each day as a new gift to make new memories... kind of like doing a "control-alt-delete" in our computer brains, without having to move out of our houses and into a different environment where no one may care about us... like a nursing home. We have to take care of ourselves, and the first step is to make sure our space is declutterred so we don't slip and fall. This is a FANTASTIC VIDEO AND A GREAT REMINDER THAT EVERY DAY WE WAKE UP IS A GIFT OF LIFE. Enjoy life and keep creating new memories and new spaces that are easy to maintain. ❤🙏

  1996. Does this advice apply ONLY to men? Times have changed and many women engage in the use of their "toys" several times a day to regain some balance in their life. So, how about a video telling us how Maria, Geraldine, Josephine and others gushed like a broken waterpipe and developed a callus in rather sensitive spots of the front and the rear without a man asking "How was I?"
    2
  1997. The worst thing a family member can do is put their elderly father or mother into a nursing home. It's a death sentence. These day's families have no patience to take care of their elderly. It's a shame. Wait until they become old and their son's and daughters send them to a nursing home. Majority of the elderly are better off in their home with family visiting most of the time.

Your list sounds like things that are found in CRPS as they cycle in and out of a variety of symptoms. I am worn out being in pain described as the worst known (TMJ is similar)... no help is coming, so sounds like I'm going down for the count! Don't mean to sound maudlin... it's just so crazy that despite my attempting to educate her, her prejudice about certain meds when others haven't worked is just so hard to believe! Hippocratic oath is hypocritical oath!

  2008. Nursing Homes Suck, it is your last stop where you are screwed over by Foreign People who do not bother to tend your needs. After my Heart operation I went into a Recovery Place, I was there two days and they had to send me back to the Hospital because of the Pitiful care I got there. Plus they had the nerve to send me a bill for the Rotten Care I got in there, and they did not send back to that Horrible place after the Hospital covered up the Terrible way I was cared for. My Older Sister and Brother in Law got the same Rotten Care in the places they were in before they passed. It is a Horrible life in the United States in Most Old Folks Homes because of Foreign workers. Another problem is the food! it was so spicy it would come right back up!

  2018. I am now 79 years old, and I still have my independence, which I will do my best to keep. When I was in grade school, on the way home, I would stop and talk to some of the people at the nursing home near my school. They told me a lot about what you have said, such as relatives not coming to see them, even on holidays, and how uninteresting the food was. Each morning, you need a reason to get up and have things to do. I have a passion for gardening and evangelizing, and I love to mentor young people. I complete a book a week and continue to learn new things. It is so important to keep the mind and body active. Maintaining a sense of humor and laughing a lot are excellent medicines. Keep in touch with your friends; they are more precious than fine rubies. My Dear Dad had to spend his last months in a nursing home; he had to be sent to the hospital for dehydration several times while in a nursing home. Patients are not monitored well enough; they do not record their fluid intake. I think dehydration of the elderly is the leading cause of their demise. Thank you for exposing the hard truths of nursing homes. Rockey

  2036. I can deeply relate to your feelings. Watching a loved one, especially a parent, go through such a dramatic change is incredibly hard. My heart goes out to you. It’s never easy to see someone who was once so strong and independent struggle with their health. But you’re right – the love and care we give during those times matter more than anything else. In the end, it’s the unconditional love that counts, and the memories we shared, both the good and the challenging, will always stay with us. I truly believe that as long as we give our best, we can have peace knowing we did everything we could for them. Thank you for sharing your story; it’s a reminder of the importance of family and love.

  2077. green fleshed 'kiwi' fruit is very good for constipation, cut into rings after peeling the outer skin, add to your breakfast cereal along with a couple of prunes, it has tons of vitamin c too and add some rings of banana as it goes very well with kiwifruit.

  2084. 4.. The itching scalp, I assumed was from my shampoo, however now I suspect it’s my blood sugar. I sometimes take too many unrefined carbs and it affects my scalp. Now that I recognize the culprits, I can change my diet by cutting out any junk and increase 🥗 salads! Ty great info😊!

  2085. Thank you for telling how it really is, when I saw the title of the video I thought thank God someone has spoken out An escape plan is essential. We can't lead a healthy, satisfying life when our lives are regimented. When those things that mean so much to us are taken away. We may be getting older, but we must maintain a healthy, purposeful life, and have our freedom, especially freedom to think for ourselves. For five years I've been living in a one-bedroom flat in sheltered housing. Don't fall for the pretty pictures they paint about sheltered housing, it has all the pitfalls that were mentioned in the video, and more besides. Living in sheltered housing is like living in a large rabbit warren. There is a main corridor with doors along it, the corridor is cold and empty except for a large fire extinguisher. Plants, ornaments, or trimmings aren't allowed - that means no Christmas decorations. All your possessions must be kept in your small flat, including bikes, items for your car and luggage. There is a small area of grass at the back of the building, about 3 meters wide, and a car park at the front. Maintained by the council, so no facilities to do any gardening. There is a lounge, with a kitchen to make tea or coffee. Bingo in the lounge on Thursday afternoon, for those who like it, no TV or internet access. The manager come in twice a week, checks the fire alarm and want's to know everyone's business. Puts up notices Don't, No, You must not. In a nutshell, we are treated and spoken to, as if we are little children. I had a farm for over 20 years, it was rented, the owner decided to sell, and I was evicted. I trimmed all my sheep's feet and still sheared when I was into my 70. Furthermore, I was 80 last December and still very active, although I could do with new knees and a new hip. Avoid sheltered housing, I would sooner die a quick death than the lingering death I'm experiencing here, in sheltered housing. No dog or cat my best friends.

  2148. Compassion is the key to true happiness. This story teaches us that by helping others, we also heal ourselves. When we cultivate kindness and understanding, we break the cycle of hatred and suffering. A small act of compassion can create waves of positive change, reaching far beyond what we can imagine. May we all strive to bring more love into the world!

So I was really thinking about not going to a nursing home but staying in my home. Your new perspective even solidifies that decision more for me. I probably will need help at some point so my job right now is to figure out how that would happen without going to a nursing home. Thanks again Great video.

I have never been to a nursing home, but I can never encourage anyone to go there for, the reasons stipulated here. Thanks for the information.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

  2279. My mother’s experience in her nursing home was disgraceful and barbaric, the food revolting. Only the lovely Filipina and Nepalese carers made my mother’s life momentarily pleasurable and joyful until the white nurses treated her with no dignity or empathy. Disgusting! I wouldn’t wish a nursing home experience on anyone who genuinely loves their partner or parent! 😢

  2280. I hope every nursing home is different. I am not planning to go to nursing home until I am capable look after myself even if I need some help. Here in Australia the Government want the elderly stay in there home until they can and want and give us a special help (like somebody come to clean , even help the shower or go to hairdresser etc.) Maybe this is much more cheaper and better for everybody. I only want to go nursing home when I am a bed ridden or very close. And another thing. you need to visit the nursing home you want to go before and not after when you already decided you go in. Here where I am living we have a small country community(and a nursing home) where the most people know each other from long time (even the staff , because they are local), this is much more friendly then go to another town or city where you don't knoe anything or anybody. I think every country's system is different.

The nursing homes are places where anyone looses their own identity, , because a person thoughts are not their own, they tell the residents what they can and can’t do , and eat what they fix or don’t eat at all , and yes people looses their independence and don’t or later will be bedridden, and dignity,

  2299. Great information to know. I have already known these precautions because of my medical experience. I would add, if you are on blood pressure medications, walk slowly and closely to a wall that you can lean on. To prevent you from falling down to floor. Thank you 🙏 for sharing these tricks.

  2300. Everyone, it is very important to focus eating healthy foods, eat fresh fruits ( no can foods, vegetables or fruits) no bad carbohydrates, no process foods, oily and salty foods. Because it is easy to get sick but it's hard to get back into good health again. I do learn this my own words that I do share to others, "We have only one life to live and one body to take good care of." I do hope everyone to take care of yourself seriously. I also found an information in the internet that sugar is the food of the cancer cells. If anyone knows someone has cancer please see a homeopathic doctor and stay away from process foods. A while ago I know a native, he bit his cancer three times and someone cured his prostate cancer with natural cured My friend died from cancer and she was taking chemotherapy. Everytime I went with her in the hospital, twelve patients taking it and at least fifty patients a day. ❤❤❤

  2304. Its all because of the owners.....the corporation. They cut staff to bear minimum and won't pay the ones who are brave enough .... and love the elderly enough.... to stay. I worked in one for 2 months, another for 2 months on an as needed basis. Some of the RN's were horrible, and lazy, but only a few. Never helped the CNT"S (retired LPN here). I would help them as often as I could, which unheard of by the cnt's. Problem was, I would fall behind in my own responsibilities....but I could NOT stand having to tell a patient " the cnt will be here in a few minutes to help to the bathroom." I HATED it when I would hear an licensed nurse say that.!!! Corporation and Lazy nurses are main reason I left nursing homes- but the other....I was lied to when I was Hired. Promised day shift in 1 mon. Complete lie.

  2305. Life is a sequence of challenges. As long as one can overcome them, one must keep on following their paths. In this video, it is clear that one should only move to a nursing home when one cannot do basic things on their own. As long as one feels they can manage their freedom, why give it up. Our own routines keep us experimenting with life as it has always been. Thanks for the advice. LOVE, LIVE, LEARN n LAUGH MAC. By the way, I'm 67.

  2316. Older women who are homebodies (more reclusive) drop out/avoid social gatherings (me) and not joining anything are wise. All these groups want is money and time and do not produce anything viable. (civic organizations, religious, political and other groups.) I have been more like this in last 5 or 6 years. Some retired women follow celebrity gossip and other pointless hobbies. Very few can carry on intelligent conversations now days. Emotional burnout, obligations to go here and there vs solitude.

  2319. I'm 80 years old, and I’ve learned that less can be more when it comes to showering! Too much hot water dries out my skin, so I stick to 2-3 times a week with a good moisturizer. Of course, a quick wash-up in between keeps me feeling fresh. What about you all? How often do you shower, and do you notice a difference in your skin?

  2357. I guess it depends on the individual, this will be PERFECT for my mother, she is the most lazy entitled person in the world. she expects to be catered to, waited on hand and foot, she NEVER leaves her bed except to use the bathroom. she flat out refuses to exercise to make her self stronger so she wont fall. Again, this would be perfect for my mother.

  2389. We should be kind to one another no matter what age. Worst time for old folks is when mentally they slip into the fantasy world of the 'good old days'. Remember good times but don't cling to them. Make new memories. Be an oldie at the gym rather than a youngster in the nursing home.

  2403. IMO nursing homes are where you go to die. There's no love there. Humans can't thrive without love. The occasional obligatory visit from family doesn't suffice. They are money makers and not there for the care of the resident. Sad that people have become so busy and materialistic that their commitments have become to work all the time to pay for their things instead of living simpler and putting family first.

  2427. After watching what my dear mother went through as my older brother’s had POA so I couldn’t do anything to intervene, I can tell you the nursing home should always be the very last resort for your loved one. I’m still trying to get over her mental anguish that they tricked her into moving out of her home and sold it and all her belongings w in 3 weeks, behind my back and I can tell you, she deeply regretted it. I watched her dying inside for 8 long years. Was a nightmare I’ll never get over. I know one thing, I’m never settling foot in one if and when that day comes. Never, God help me.

  2462. My father-in-law was put in a nursing home for four years. He was abused. They called us to the hospital. They told us he was been abused when he recovered. I went to his room at the hospital and told him dad I’m bringing you home with me. He cried like a baby. He had dementia. He didn’t understand, but once I got him home with me and my husband and his grandkids And his wife, he died in my arms and took his last breath. That was the happiest time for him, my mother-in-law passed away and my family room. I wasn’t going to put her in a nursing home, my brother is taking care of our mother right now. I pray every day that he won’t put her in a nursing home. I would rather bring her to my house and so I can take care of her. I am against nursing homes. They are very abusive to certain elderly people. My aunt just passed away with brain cancer. The nurse let her fall on the floor, transferring her from the bed to the wheelchair, she had made four reports on this nurse and nothing was done now she is gone. She went through radiation. Radiation took the rest of her brain because she couldn’t remember all due to the trunk slamming on her head please for God sake people think before you give up your life. Nursing homes are good for certain people and some people will agree. I personally don’t agree if the family members are able to take care of you then go to them stay out of nursing homes God love you all, and please be safe🙏🙏🙏💙

  2533. It's best to stay in your own home if you can. That way you're living in a street, with neighbors of all ages, doing your own thing just the way you want. That way you stay connected with Life. I used to work in a nursing home and it's exactly the way you describe it. Showering was twice a week, under supervision of a 18 year old. Mornings were spent waiting in the communal area for lunch to arrive. The dying were left alone....to die. The sick were left in the restroom by themselves until they relieved themselves, sometimes hours on end. I could go on and on of the indignities endured by these elderly people. Both my parents lived independently until the day they died, in their nineties. Stay away from nursing homes......stay independent.

  2538. You are absolutely right. People don’t realise what it’s like moving into AC. Doesn’t matter if it’s the greatest place, it’s not your place. You can’t take your bed. You can’t have breakfast when it suits you. You can’t have a certain meal you might just fancy. You are on camera, under watchful eyes always. In certain cases this is needed when they can no longer look after yourself. Even then, you life is no longer yours. The freedom you have always had, is gone.

  2546. Use a nursing home as a very last resort. Don't feel guilty though ,when it is finally time for a loved one that needs care. My mother lived alone in her own house until she was 91. She got severe dementia. Didn't know people, or where she was, she couldn't remember to take her medicine, couldn't bathe or cook food. It was dangerous. She lived in a nursing home until she passed at 95. Able bodied people should not be in a care home. There are many other options like assisted living. Some even have transitional care where your loved one moves to more care as needed. It's also less expensive.

  2640. This was a very informative video. I'd like to add that adult children often have serious health issues of their own and cannot always give caregiving support without risking their own health. I know first hand that caregiving is often brutally physical labor. I was only able to provide it because of my own good health AND outside support.

She now shares a room with a person who is horrible , messes the bed etc. She hates it now, I dont like going to see her because of some of the people , its depressing.. I ve been a cook at nursing homes but things have changed since the 70's. Its not their homes anymore its a business..

  2659. In the UK nursing homes are for people who need nursing care, who are no longer independent and who can't even get out of bed or go to the bathroom without assistance. Care homes or residential homes are for those who are physically and mentally able. I knew a man in his 90s who chose to move to a care home and he never regretted his decision. He was glad he no longer had to worry about doing chores at home and keeping up with stressful repairs and maintenance arrangements. The home also met his religious needs. He said he was more relaxed and didn't have to spend time with residents he didn't like and made friends with others. It was also better for people without family or close friends to be in a care home than at home alone with no one to talk to on a daily basis. For those who didn't have walking difficulties, there were coach trips to places of interest and other ways of keeping the residents intellectually alert and interested. The standard of care probably has a lot to do with how much a person is willing or able to pay.

Unintentional weight loss, contineous fatigue are common for CLL patient. Because of white blood cell issue frequent infections are a known risk too. I am living with it. No option. My prayer is that death should not be miserable for me. I am now 70.

  2725. So if a person is healthy, walk around without walking stick, walker and independent, don't go to a nursing home. Nursing home is for dementia people, people depends on walking aids. It's better for an independent person who can care for himself to go the old age home. The cost of staying in an old age home is much lesser than a nursing home. For an independent person to stay in a nursing home, it is actually paying for services which are not needed for example assistance in eating, showering, getting up from bed, moving around in wheelchair, consulting house doctor on light sickness.

(the nursing home). became 100% invalid. cant walk, cant use toilet, cant get out of bed, just slept slept slept slept slept for 2 years in the nursing home. inheritance disappeared as it wasnt "protected" (GET IT OUT OF BANK/SSN/GD financial "advisor"/shyster ) so.... nursing got it all. $6000... $8000... now $10,000 a month for 3 hots and a cot? THIS IS LIKE JAIL!!! it wasnt like jail, but it wasn't HOME... I WILL CRAWL!!! up brick steps to bedroom with skin as thin as rice paper??? want is irrelevant... once in nursing home they have to keep the ... beds full full full to keep that $$$ coming in as NURSING HOMES ARE FOR PROFIT!$$$ SHE IS A WITCH... the poor overworked woman that took care of ... 20 old wemen changing their diapers/ sheets, getting them dressed (like dressing a rag doll)... taking them to the dining hall so they can pick at their bland food til get wheeled back to room to go back to bed to sleep sleep sleep... til sleep for eternity? Feeders... have to be fed as they cannot do it themselves??? OMFG!!!! girl that ran a nursing home, NO COLLEGE... made $60,000 a year... $80,000 a YEAR?? WITHOUT A COLLEGE DEGREE??? WOW, so there goes the $$$ and the INVESTORS that expect their investments to go UP UP UP ALL THE TIME. the "HELP" (DIAPER CHANGERS) make $8? $9/hr turnover has to be horrific... WM pays $16 here, no diaper changing. want... is irrelevant.

  2801. Think twice before moving into a large senior apt building too, 3 sisters sold their complex & moved into a several story building. They found the sirens at all hours of the night & day to be very upsetting. Who died this time! Going down for meals was a hassle & often food wasn't very interesting & realized the limited menu was repeated way too often. Watching the fragile folks in halls was so sad. They hated it! Before they each had their own tiny house with older sister owning the property with grass & trees ,small garden & now no way out, rent was high & they couldn't find anywhere to move out to, prices had gone up. They all died within 3 years of moving in the apt. Depressed & regretting leaving their lovely property. They had been quite healthy before they sold, no walkers or canes needed.

  2809. I am already working on some of these suggestions, like posture, communication and not winging too much. I also found that important to clean out the wardrobe from time to time and make room for something new and fashionable. It doesn’t need to be expensive, just a style I will able to mix and match with my old favourites. I will be 75 years old in couples of months, cutting back on makeup, but I always looked after my skin, (some people think I am 55) and I still love my lipstick 💄 and planning to grow old gracefully. Have a wonderful day everyone 😊

  2815. Hell will freeze over before I book into a so called "nursing" home. My stupid husband can't wait to move in. Move in without me, I retort. It's a prison for the elderly. Where kids dump their unwanted parents.

  2883. I 👍 😢. agree!!! After fracturing an ankle and getting depressed I started to think about not wanting the responsibility of independence. I was 69 and lived alone in a small subsidized apartment with too much clutter. I needed a walker. I was in Rehabilitation hospital , back home with PSWS support and meals on wheels . Then hospital where they talked me into a retirement home to get my strength back with three big meals a day. It cost $4500. month. for a room with kitchenette and bathroom. No privacy...staff wandering in and out whenever they pleased. No independence. Told what to do. It was depressing and hard to deal with. After my month stay they wanted me to make it permanent with a contract and as I still had my one bedroom aptm. I called a friend to rent a car to get me out with my things. I called it The Great Escape. As well they tried to charge an extra $ 2500. - for the month. I complained and they said it was a mistake. It was a lesson for myself and all. Keep your independence in mind; body and spirit!!!❤i am backin my own little apartment in my neighbourhood with my belongings and friends and community 🎉😊❤.

  2884. Indeed, the Seniors at the Nursing Home have no freedom to practice their usual Hobbies or even freedom to move outside and choose what they love most. Even social contacts are limited I saw the difference with the Senuors lifestyle in the Philippines countryside. Seniors there can go to the Shoreline or Beach whenever they like . There they can just seat and observe Nature. Getting out to wherever and whenever they like. They are even invited to attend social Community Programs. I think that planning where to stay and do yet enjoy the last years. GOD bless!

  2886. I put my dad in a nursing home. To my dying day I'll be sorry I did! This place was incredibly abusive. I made so many reports to government agencies about all the neglect, abuse... and got NO RESOLVE WHAT SO EVER! In fact, this was my first real education on what a narcissist/psychopath really was. I tried to get my dad out of there. I wanted to get him in a new place, but she (the DON) had blackballed us everywhere through the medical language of labeling us as a difficult family. I don't know the insider label term... My poor, frail dad was so abused, neglected. The things I witnessed were UNBELIEVABLE!!! I LITERALLY MOVED IN THERE WITH MY DAD, AND BEGGED STAFF TO DO THEIR JOB!!! I even witnessed a male nurse stab the back of my dad's throat as he hastily shoved food into my dad's mouth. I confronted this nurse about this and he denied it. I told him, "Im sitting RIGHT HERE, INFRONT OF YOU AND MY DAD!!!" I SAW IT!!! MY DAD REALED BACK IN PAIN!!! Still this male nurse denied it. I reported it, but as all my complaints, ...all to no avail. The Director of Nurses began stalking me throughout the facility, smear campaigning me everywhere. She publicly humiliated us, and punished us with sleep deprivation. Someone told me she had spent 8 years in the military.... Things got so bad that I needed SOMEBODY TO DO SOMETHING!!! I called the police. I told them I needed help as she was stalking me within the facility, threatening me, ...etc. Little did I know that, with a military background, this DON was considered one of them by local police. I was horrified when the officer told me it would be best for me to "drop it." He was nice, and kind, and had the tone of.... "trust me, you really don't want to make this worse for the two of you,"...like I would just be creating a situation of awakening the rather of a wild queen hornets nest. I had no idea BACK THEN of what he was saying, and confusedly decided to take his advice. As we had been talking, the nurse manager had poked his head in the room and told the officer that, "After your done here (name), (name of DON) wants to talk to you. It was like she did EVERYTHING with an air of intimidation. I could do on and on.... With the use/help of ALL HER FLYING MONKEYS (staff, police, Health Department, Adult Protection, Ombudsman, etc) she continued her attacks on us. Not even allowing me to take my dad out for a drive in the sunshine, ...turning away service men friends who came to visit my dad....telling them that they thought I'd put them up to visiting my dad (I did not, and even if I did...was it a crime to have my dad have visitors?!!). So they denied these good men access to my dad, or any visitors. This had came about after I had been issued TWO BACK TO BACK NO TRESSPASSES (a common practice a nursing home will do to people who are witnessing and reporting to much on a particular facility). This took me away from my Loved one, stopped my reporting to authorities what I saw going on, and punished me for doing so. This woman wanted to be my gOD!!! People, well meaning people, told me to go back to her and apologize, beg her to let me see my poor, frail 87 year old dad. NO! I REFUSED! All I had left, was the phone. And they made contact practically IMPOSSIBLE. When I was able to get to him, I found my dad was now slurring his words, and passing out on the phone. I was horrified!!! As you can imagine, "WHAT WERE THEY DOING TO HIM IN THERE?!!!" I could tell you so much more... as anyone who has ever had any experience with a psychopath....the stories are never short ones... My dad died in there, alone, without me.... It's been years now, and I STILL cry like a baby over it. The few people I was able to talk to (staff in that place my dad called Hell),... I have occasionally seen them out and about, working new jobs at Home Depot, the local Good Will. They had been grilled about our conversations, and then let go (fired). One told me he has saw my dad was trying to kill himself with a fork in the outlet of his room, and another time, with the belt of his pants. THIS was NOT the strong, tough, intelligent man my dad was...but I could believe became. Oh, I Loved him so much, and to have him be ....put done in the end like this .... RIP dad. I Love you.

  2906. As for me nursing home is best place for the elders to stay , if nobody in the family can take care of you for 24/7 . The nursing home will give all the help you needs specially if your not capable to do things for yourself as long as you cooperative, good attitude and show appreciation, love them & they will love you too and care of you deep in their heart. I’m a caregiver that’s why I knew what’s going on. But if your bad and no good who will be happy to take for you?

Number 6, I found all these very helpful, I seem to de-clutter in fits and spurts and it never is complete, but I like the recommendation of taking it room by room, or Type of clutter as you talked about here. Sentimental items are still the hardest to release, but I'm getting better at picking/choosing what to keep I have one keepsake box for cards. I find I need less and less the older I get, turned 70 last year. Thank you for all these ways to improve life as we age!

  2927. 🌟 Amazing video! 🌟 It really helped me understand the psychological shifts that happen as we age. The 5 reasons you explained for why we tend to avoid people more and feel happier about it were so insightful! It’s not just about being antisocial, but about finding peace in solitude and valuing personal space. This helps us protect our mental and emotional well-being as we get older. Great perspective—thank you for sharing these valuable insights! 🙏💡

  2944. 6. Nursing Homes are worse than prisons. They are like concentration camps, you have no dignity, no freedom, no say etc. l won't even take my dog there, they shouldn't be homes for human beings. The saddest institution to leave your loved ones. Some in the nursing homes are like zombies, sit and stare at the walls if they are lucky they get someone to take them to sit by the windows. The government has cut recreational activities leaving the residents/patients idle doing absolutely nothing. Families only show up when their loved ones die, everyone is too busy to visit but are not busy to come, sit, and pretend to mourn the dead bodies. I would rather be homeless on the streets than go to a nursing home. The abuse from some staff is unbearable to watch, managers who don't give a damn about the welfare of the residents/patients are just sitting in their offices with their several secretaries while the CEO get almost millions of dollars doing nothing. Workloads for those who work by the bedside is more than a crime, can you imagine one staff having to care for 15 to 20 residents/patients, at some nursing homes registered staffs have 60 to 65 patients and a couple of care on top of passing medications, doing treatments, assessments, calling the doctors, in some cases had to call the families as well etc. Great insights from this videos and hope many will watch and learn the true reality of a nursing home.

  2972. All that you have said is true. That’s why I’ll move in a nursing home only if I am not that strong anymore that I cannot take care of myself. And it is truly hard to have to share your bedroom with someone else whose values are different from yours. Our habits are set and it would be very hard to adjust and to adapt and get along with people. So. When I’m no longer strong and capable of looking after my needs and myself, by then I’ll have no choice but make a big sacrifice to live a life in a nursing home as you described it to be.

  2982. The difference between life in a nursing home and life in prison: Prison is free. However... whatever Cross we are handed in life - one can still humbly, prayerfully, offer one's sufferings to the Blessed Lord Jesus - which enables us to give Him greater glory, gain personal merit... and perhaps even inspire another who may be suffering even more+

  2993. My mother has dementia/alzheimers, is doubly incontinent and had delirium. I am elderly too and have osteoarthritis. I now suffer with a very painful back after years of helping her in and out of a car and pushing her in a wheelchair. So my life has been diminished drastically. Carers only stayed for 15/20 minutes to give meds and food/drink. When it got worse she refused to shower. Tell me, what should I have done??? My mother refused to go into a home and had about 8 falls, the final one was a very bad fall, onto her walker and a large part of her skin on her leg was ripped off. She ended up in hospital for 3 months, and only then was she deemed to be needing 24 hour nursing care. AFTER being in the nursing home, having a daily routine, being looked after, the UTIS’s stopped, the delirium finally stopped, the angry shouting stopped. She reverted back to being more like the ,mother I knew and got on well with the carers. The nurses and carers are lovely and look after my now bedridden mother very well. And yet I see videos like this, and people saying that being in a nursing home is the worst. Well, it isnt! There are good, well run, caring nursing homes. You just have to find them. I went through a great many years of hell trying to keep my mother safe and well. Doing all her chores, washing, gardening, and at the same time my husband was ill. I think a lot of the people making comments are oblivious of the reality of some people’s circumstances. Do I feel guilty? Yes.. in spite of the many years of care I gave her. But in the end, her quality of life improved as did mine. Because of videos like this people are so scared of going into a home and this is not right. It may not be for everyone, but for some it is a blessing and life improves.

  3005. Good speech. I'm 77 and I am determined never to go into a nursing home. I don't mind if I die some day on the floor as long as I have my independence. I regard nursing homes as prisons. When you are not in charge of your situation, you are a prisoner. Unfortunately, I think sometimes parents are pushed into nursing homes by children who have designs on the home that will be newly vacated. They might want to sell it for the money or rent it, again for the money. 6

  3028. We had a relative that got fed up with nursing home prison. She got up one day, packed a bag, sneaked out and took a plane to a niece's house. Her niece didn't know about the nursing home. She spent the rest of her life with her.

  3041. I am 91 . My wife and I sold our house last year to move closer to our family, 200kms. Our choices included nursing home, buying a condo or renting an apartment. we had always owned property so renting felt like a strange idea. We finally found a lovely apartment in a 50 year old building which has been fully upgraded. we are extremely happy with our choice. Most of the residents are senior people but they are used to being independent to a large degree We have a lovely view. about 1000 square feet. very comfortable. We see our 3 families frequently all within half hours drive.

  3055. Staff in the nursing home can be very disrespectful Some of the nurses are wonderful and committed to provide good care, but that is very rare Carers are usually tasks orientated, often speak in their own language and they never have enough time Yes, for staff it's only a job For residents it's just a survival 😢

  3064. I have. A aunt that's in a nursing home right now. She cannot walk. Taken 20 pills a day. She, she needs round-the-clock. Care. With little or no money. Where else do you think you're going to wind up? You have 2 choices. Go in the nursing home. Or just pass away, it's that simple. She cannot take care of herself.Even the littlest of task

  3065. As an 78-year-old who once considered a nursing home, I relate deeply to this video. I chose to stay in my home with some assistance, and while it’s not always easy, I kept my independence, routines, and sense of purpose. If you're thinking about a nursing home, ask yourself: Is there another way to get help without giving up your freedom? Once independence is gone, it’s nearly impossible to regain. Plan carefully—you may regret rushing into it.

  3068. Perfect for me this philosophy and way of living, it’s the way I live and I’m happier now. I used to count myself worth by how many friends I had which were many and now it’s just me and I’m OK with that. I’m quite social with strangers and happy, but I don’t feel the need to create new friendships. I find most people boring and it’s tedious tiring to keep up a relationship. So I thank you for this validating video.😊

  3127. YOU SAID EVERYTHING THAT I BELIEVE. THIS IS SOMETHING THAT I HAVE TO THINK ABOUT DAILY BECAUSE OUR AGE IS WAY UP THERE. i WOULD NEVER PUT MY HUSBAND IN A NURSING HOME UNLESS I ABSOLUTELY COULD NOT TAKE CARE OF HIM. i SAVED AN UNCLE THAT WAS ALONG AND PROLONGED HIS LIFE BY ALLOWING HIM TO JOIN US IN OUR HOME EVEN THOUGH HE WAS DIFFICULT. WHEN HE GOT TO HIS FINAL STAGE OF LIFE HE THANKED ME AND TOLD ME THAT I WAS THE ONLY ONE THAT HAD CARED ABOUT HIM AND MAKE THE FOOD THAT HE LIKED. MY MOTHER ALSO, LIVED ALONE AND WOULD NOT MOVE IN WITH US, BUT I KEPT UP WITH DOING EVERYTHING SHE NEEDED, LIKE TAKING HER TO APPOINTMENTS, BOUGHT HER FOOD, AND BROUGHT HER TO MY HOME FOR WEEKENDS WHICH SHE LOVED BUT SHE WANTED TO GO HOME EVEN WHEN SHE WAS TOLD SHE HAD TERMINAL CANCER WHICH TOOK HER IN ONE MONTH. DURING THAT TIME MY DAUGHTER AND I STAYED WITH HER THE ENTIRE TIME. LOVE YOUR SENORS!!

  3155. Going to the right nursing home makes all the diffence, we moved my mother from the wrong nursing home to a much better one. Unable to leave her bed due to ill heath we move her to a frail care part of a nursing home age 88. Where her improvement was seen daily. She is now able to walk around with her walker and we can visit her at any time, even take her out to attented her grandsons wedding. Yesterday we took her shopping. She has only been in the new place 3 months now and has made many friends. Beside the frailcare there a flats and cottages for the other seniors to live in a safe enviromant but still getting help if needed. She is hoping to move into one of the flats once she feel able to manage. For those living in the flats and cottages they take them once a week to go shopping . The supermarket even offers them tea and cake. There are more expensive nursing homes with swimming pools and gyms . Some have trail bike trails and running trails too.

  3228. Truthfully, if she could still take care of herself, why did she move to a nursing home? A nursing home is for folks that can't care for themselves, and have no family left, or willing to care for them. I worked in a nursing home back in the 80's (NA), one of the best in the state, really great place, but no one should go in unless it's needed. The majority of our residents were total care, then we had some partial care, but only a few that might have been able to live on their own. The place I worked at was more like a hotel, the residents loved it, so did I, but it's never perfect. Home is always the better option.

Thank God and Glorify Him while you still are able to. Thank Him always for what you have. He has a way of humbling people. Praise His Holy Name!

I do my banking on the computer and have groceries delivered. My hobbies include jigsaw puzzles, knitting, reading, cooking, and light gardening. I am enjoying a quiet life.

As far as eating goes, if I don't want breakfast, I will stay in my room and watch World News, but i certainly wouldn't want to sit in the dinning room watching other people eat.

  3381. That's creepy. I am 73 YO and working full time 40 H week. No way I would never live in a nursing home. God made me Strong for a reason and it was not to give what little I have to eat some canned fruit cocktail or some pureed food that nursing homes slop together. No aint gonna happen. I pray that God lets me die b4 anyone makes that decision for me. I knew of a woman who was doing great until 90. Then developed various conditions and ended life her last 18 months in a NH. They were charging her 8500$ a month and fed her food from cans loaded with preservatives and sugar, knowing that she had diabetes controlled by healthy diet. The family regretted ever letting her go ther but afterward as in the example of this video it for her to go home to her house. Once they get their hands on your money its all over. Her son would go every day and take the paper. He told me that shed be sitting there in her dress soaked with urine EVERY SINGLE TIME. Ya know people that allow that should be criminally charged.

  3384. all this advice is suitable only if a person is in very good health and are able to walk and able to do everything on his own. If person is physically weak not able to move up to toilet on own and needs support. some are mentally challenged. This advice is not suitable for physically / mentally handicapped person. This cannot be a General advice. That way I know a person who at the age of 85 years old can climb steps 3500 steps and takes meal only once in a day but never taken any medicine or visited doctor in his whole life.

  3392. What was being said unfortunately happened to my late mom. I couldn't look after her due to my abdominal health so my sister made the decision to send her to a nursing home. I had doubts my mom would be well taken care of but my sister insisted. My mom lost so much of her body mass. She wasn't given proper food. She wasn't being well taken care of. When queried the staff gave all kind of excuses. Nursing homes are built to expedite elderly folks demise. It may not be true but the possibility is real. I would take care of myself better. Always to remember to move my body/limbs carefully, slowly. Watch my food intake, drink more water. No one can take care of you as good as yourself. I'm 69 now. I will, insyallah, not to allow any of my children to decide for me where I should live 🤲🏻

  3438. Although I’m 60 I do enjoy ur videos and learn from them however; I have had the OPPOSITE problem for the past 20 years or more and no doctor has yet to explain what the cause is. What makes it even worse is I get extreme attacks without warning and it always hits at the most inconvenient time. It is very frustrating and even though I am prepared and know that it will happen at some point I can’t continue to live my life as a recluse bc I’m afraid to go anywhere due to my frustratingly unhealthy problem that my doctors have not been able to agree on the cause and how to fix it. So tired of endoscopy’s. Do you have a video on this problem??

  3447. This is why we all need to invest in long term care insurance so we can stay in our own homes instead of wasting money on expensive new cars, entertainment, partying, things we dont really need. If you can afford those things AFTER providing for your future, then by all means treat yourself, but make sure you've provided for your old age first. FYI: Average care in a facility is over $7K PER MONTH plus extras: most facilities charge extra for transportation to and from Dr. Appts, hair stylists, etc. Also, the food they serve is cheapest possible mass produced..nothing fresh. If youre not sick when you move in, within a couple months the food will be slowly killing you.

  3452. This is valuable information. I watched until 1:37 and knew enough. My mum felt isolated and decided to move into a building managed by the state, a supervised facility. Half of the residents were young people, on purpose, to make it more lively. It is a comfortable, clean place, well located on the outskirts of the town. Two weeks after she had moved in, she had dramatically changed and lost her stamina. She never told me what happened and I am not even sure that she realised how much she had changed.

  3480. Many decades ago working in a nursing home I was looking for linens to bathe and change a patient who had no control over his bladder. I was so shocked when I was told there were no clean linens available and the patients will just have to wait until they were delivered the next day. I cried silently and walked out of that place never to go back. The cruelty of humans just grate on me so much that it feels like physical pain. The corporations control this planet, but we still have individual responsibility that extends to our elders, the community, etc. Our complacency brought us to where we are.

  3490. Sample menu from a.i. Absolutely! Here's a constipation-relief focused menu incorporating prunes, chia seeds, oatmeal, kefir, and sweet potatoes, spread over three days: Day 1: Gentle Start * Morning (7:00 AM): * Oatmeal (1/2 cup dry) cooked with water or unsweetened almond milk. * Mix in 2 tablespoons of chia seeds and 4 chopped prunes while cooking. * Top with a sprinkle of cinnamon. * Large glass of water. * Mid-Morning (10:00 AM): * Kefir (1 cup) with a handful of fresh berries. * Lunch (1:00 PM): * Large salad with mixed greens, grilled chicken or chickpeas, and a baked sweet potato (medium-sized, skin on). * Dressing: Olive oil and lemon juice. * Afternoon (4:00 PM): * A few prunes (4-5) and a small handful of almonds. * Large glass of water. * Dinner (7:00 PM): * Sweet potato and lentil soup (plenty of fiber). * Large glass of water. Day 2: Fiber Focus * Morning (7:00 AM): * Overnight chia seed pudding: 2 tablespoons chia seeds soaked in 1 cup unsweetened almond milk, with chopped prunes and a sprinkle of vanilla extract. * Mid-Morning (10:00 AM): * One cup of Kefir. * Lunch (1:00 PM): * Sweet potato and black bean bowl: Baked sweet potato cubes, black beans, corn, and salsa. * Afternoon (4:00 PM): * Blend a smoothie: Kefir, Prunes, and spinach. * Dinner (7:00 PM): * Baked salmon with roasted sweet potato and steamed broccoli. * Large glass of water. Day 3: Hydration and Regularity * Morning (7:00 AM): * Oatmeal (1/2 cup dry) cooked with water and mixed with chopped prunes. * Large glass of water. * Mid-Morning (10:00 AM): * One cup of Kefir. * Lunch (1:00 PM): * Large salad with grilled chicken or tofu, mixed greens, and a side of baked sweet potato fries (baked, not fried). * Afternoon (4:00 PM): * A small bowl of prunes. * Large glass of water. * Dinner (7:00 PM): * Chicken or vegetable stir-fry with plenty of vegetables (including sweet potato chunks) and brown rice. * Large glass of water. Key Considerations: * Hydration: Drink plenty of water throughout each day. Fiber needs water to work effectively. * Portion Control: Adjust portion sizes to your individual needs. * Gradual Increase: If you're not used to high-fiber foods, gradually increase your intake to avoid gas and bloating. * Physical Activity: Combine this diet with regular physical activity for optimal results. * Consult a Doctor: If you have chronic constipation or any underlying health conditions, consult your doctor or a registered dietitian before making significant dietary changes. * Sugar content: Check the sugar content of your kefir, and almond milk. Unsweetened versions are prefered. * Prune juice: Prune juice can be added to any of these days. This menu provides a good balance of fiber, probiotics, and hydration to help promote regularity. Remember, consistency is key!

  3531. God bless you been forced to be in a nursing home. My heart bleeds for you.! I’m a true believer in the Lord Jesus Christ or savior. I have talked to him for years about not allowing that to be my final demise on this earth. I pray that he just let me go sleep one night and I don’t know that I didn’t wake up the next day until I’m awakened with him for eternity.🙏 when I came out of nursing worked in a nursing home I cried every night. It was so devastating what I saw these elderly people being forced to live in in the day they had people falling all over themselves because they get doing inspections during the day and stuff it was pitiful human beings have to live in those circumstances. It is a profit money making machine and they don’t care. They’re more elderly coming right behind the ones that can’t survive the circumstances they are forced to live under !! I told them they needed to be shut down !!

  3569. I did enjoy listening to your views and experience of living in a nursing home. I am British and moved into a retirement property with my husband and although we had our own apartment I regretted it from day one. It was like living in a hotel.I missed having my own front door. We lost a lot of money when we sold it after four years of trying, £70, 000. I am extremely lucky. My Son and his wife bought a property with a huge garden. I live in an annex in view of the house. I have my own privacy and front door. My groceries are delivered and I walk around the outskirts of the garden daily for exercise. We give each other breathing space and if I need anything, they are close by. When the Grandchildren visit we are all in the garden ( weather permitting) and I am invited to eat with them as an extended family. The house is rural and off the main road so it is very peaceful.😅

I believe going to a senior living residence would be almost parallel to a nursing home in that you lose a lot of your independence and he ave rules to be followed as to when and what each meal will be, activities more restricted. Please look well into this lifestyle before making the change.

  3594. I’m considering going to a nursing home because I don’t want to be a burden on my family because they worry about how I can remain independent. I’ve got a lot of responsibilities that I’m solely responsible for and although I make many mistakes, I am learning to forgive myself and learn from them, but I’m embarrassed and ashamed of some but, I’m beginning to accept that my children have made mistakes and I didn’t hold them against them. Therefore, I will continue to make mistakes, nobecause I’m old, but because I am still learning despite my age and I truly value my ability to learn from them. I want the ability to continue to learn and grow. This may sound irresponsible but I’d rather be accused of being foolish than give up my freedom to continue learning and being who I truly am

  3604. My mum kept asking when she was put in a nursing home after she fell, calling me to ask to get out of "prison". Her house was hoarded, so I called in an arsenal of people to empty it and installed accessible facicilities at home. I got her home care 4 x times a day. But she still called about loneliness, even with TVs in every room and me on the phone. It's soooo hard to age or get sick. I don't think in the western world we are prepared enough. In Asia they look after one's own in situ.

  3618. Perhaps one should not move into a nursing house until one is absolutely unable to look after oneself. Losing one's independence and loneliness is hard to bear. These are not just the negative aspects of a nursing home but a part of aging most of us has to bear someday. The body will go, develop your mind while you can, says the Buddha.
    1
  3619. I think if some people really need to move there. They should make it where the ones are independent has things they can do, like the men that build things, paint, teach, etc. Build shops around them to go to. Church in there also. But yes family should take care of them at home, they took care of you.

  3648. My grandmother is 101, and she has dementia and I quit my job, which I loved to care for her full time. I get paid by the state, which, believe me, isn't much money. Everybody told me to put her in a nursing home, I had a friend who actually told me to get a private nurse. I told her how much money you think l make? I have noticed that her dementia hasn't advanced as I thought. It's still pretty mild , I knew a nursing home wouldn't have been an option when I had heard of a lady from my church who had dementia, and was put in a nursing home. Her dementia advanced within a couple of months, and she died less than a year. My grandmother raised me after my mom died , I just couldn't put her away when I didn't have to. 15:04

  3685. I was the only biological son of my parents. My adopted brother and sister somehow twisted things and got my parents to sue me. Their homes were in my name (their lawyer did this because I told them they would not be put in a nursing home). Well I lost the court battle because they flipped and turned against me. Then my father passed and my mother was put into a nursing home against both her will and mine. This was almost 20 years ago! I still don't know how or why my parents fought the only person trying to keep them out? I was their only biological son. It made no sense to me.

  3724. My mother, who had Alzheimers, fell and broke her hip at home. I went over to the skilled nursing facility to have breakfast with her and to check on her. A helper asked the table of residents who wanted coffee. My mother didnt answer because she had Alzheimers so she didnt get coffee. I spoke up and said she would like coffee!! If I hadnt been there she wouldnt have gotten coffee. 😮 After she healed I took her back home. I took care of her in her home for 12 years. She died at home. I might add at home she got a nice cup of coffee with creamer and whipped cream every single morning. 😊

  3738. My mother went into a care home for a week when she came out if hospital as my Dad had an infection so was too weak to look after her. She absolutely HATED being away from her home and gave my father a lot of grief when she returned home for putting her there.

  3761. If at all possible if you can do enough to take care of yourself, go into independent living where you have your own small apartment but eat meals with others and socialize with others. It can be life affirming if it is the right place. People do better there if their families are still very much in your life and the friends you have left.

I know what a nursing home is...nothing but laying in bed wet and sleeping cause no one really cares anymore...just a paycheck to most people nowadays. Even doctors don't care anymore. World is changing so fast its all about me...Jesus is Lord over all and is the answer for everything... !

  3770. 4,6 Thank you for this video which gave me great advice. I think sometimes you feel very isolated and you question yourself in so many ways. Your words are backed up with pure common sense but I think my heart was feeling so heavy that I couldn’t see what was happening clearly. I think I was trying to make sense of how our relationship had changed so drastically.I had already realised their behaviour towards me had definitely changed but you showed me how to take back control of my life. I now realise I need to change my outlook towards them and not just be there for them when they needed anything. Sometimes I feel when your heart takes control that your brain is not in gear. Thank you for your amazing advice and helping me to see things from a new and very positive perspective 🙏

  3774. I know some people have no choice. But, the one mission in my life was to insure that my parents did not go to a nursing home. I had a wonderful career and did well in life. So, when my mother died of pancreatic cancer, I was left to make the decision for my Dad. The VA told me there was a Veterans Nursing home in Chula Vista California. I could not do that to the man that had raised me, sent me to college, give me everything I had. So, in the middle of a great career, I retired. My Dad moved in with my Husand and I and the next 10 years were wonderful. I enjoyed my time with him. I took him everywhere. He passed at 90. It was the best thing I ever did in my life. I miss him and I love him so much. Both my Mother and my Father passed at home in the arms of those that loved them.

  3775. THEY KILL PEOPLE INSIDE THOSE HOMES !!!
    1
  3776. I'm 74 live alone and still work. I had my father with me for 4 years until at 92 he had an accident and needed full time care which was unaffordable. The first home he didn't like so I moved him to a second one which he seemed to settle into. Reasonably priced with his own room TV and bathroom. At 95 his health nose dived and he could no longer walk unaided. He died in his sleep 8 months later. Old age homes are a last resort not some happy ending to one's life. I hope I also die in my sleep sooner than later.

  3807. The nursing home owns you. A friend of mine couldn’t even take her vitamins. You turn over all your rights to someone that doesn’t love you. If you have no choice, you better have family engaged that will fight for you, to the point they know you’d remove them. In those circumstances, we had positive experiences.

  3892. My aunt died at l02. Pf course she had a lot of oroblems. Had carers and I helped a lot. But wasn't unhappy. My brother after she had a sorll in hospital thought she shoukd go into a home. He had an operation went into a home for six weeks and never said my aunt should go into a home anymore. Despite my aunts many oroblems she was happy at home. Got big print library books divered. Service has been abandoned now. Her brain was good so could do puzzle books and loved recording tv programmes. And had visitors so lucky in that respect. We all helped her. I worry about this assisted dying bill. Some people might judge my aunts life as being poor but she wasn't unhappy. Care homes are awful

  3893. Personally, I cannot think of anything worse than living in a nursing home! I lov e my independenc and choosing what I want to eat and when. I can sit on my laptop until 2 am if I want and get out of bed when I like! Joy oh joy to be free!

  3894. many residents of nursing homes go missing, because they want to go home, and they start walking. My neighbor let her brother talk into going to a home. I took care of her 8 pets for 4 months, She was delusional with her budget, and i knew it would catch up to her. Her house was sold, and she goes to the front desk of the home and calls people to ask them where her things are. Her brother moved quick. She found a way out of a situation, but now is in another. My position is i feel manipulated. I'd have to beg to get paid for the yard, and was starting to become a caretaker. She messed herself up.

It wasn’t until I incorporated regular movement short walks, stretching, even standing while reading that I noticed a change. Less stiffness, better circulation, and more vitality. This video is an eye-opener!

  3940. Almost 70 and working harder now for free then when I was working for a wage. I live alone but have a partner that works to live away from home, with my cat who is my best friend and companion. I have many ducks these never stop talking to me and I to them as I live in a country setting not a concert jungle. I look after my own veggies garden, planted out more then 60 mixed fruit trees that keep me busy pruning, spraying, harvesting or cooking them for storage treats over winter, or donating to whoever when needed. Health ways I'm will overweight by 100kgs and not prude of that as this weight takes its toll on my once strong legs that could carry me with my rifle 20/30 ks daily while out on the range in our wild NZ bush. Sore joints is the killer and the weight helps me to suffer I know that, but I've spent the last 20 years trying to rid that weight with little or no success. My grip is as strong as a ox and people my age group often refuse to shake my hand because of it. I still dig drains, cut wood with my metal handle slasher the larger trees are cut with my 15kg chainsaw with its 30 something inch bar. Health ways I feel pretty good only the weight and the sore joints affect my walking movements, I feel privileged to still be here knowing many of my mates arnt.

  3943. you have only 2 choises , the cost of a private caregiver actually 2 , one for day and one for nite , against the cost of a nursing home with 24 hours care and frail care with doctors and nurses on the staff , dont give people wrong advice ,family and children realize that in todays society the eldery are soft targets especially if criminals realize that they stay alone and if an eldery person have a medical emergency there is no help , so my advice would be rather stay with family in a granny flat if you want a bit of independence , but we cannot hold our family captive with the guilt of caring for us

  3963. My grand parents moved in with us when I was younger. First my Dad's father, then years later, my mother's mother. My dad's father was okay, but he kept falling down stairs, waking us up early in the morning with his bathroom ritual, and stinking up the house with his own style of cooking. My grandmother was okay to have live with us, but she did smoke a lot. Both of them almost set fire to the house at different times with their need to light the fireplace or by throwing lit matches into the trash. I miss them both, but somehow the nursing home option may have had its advantages.

  3974. My MIL used to be a charge nurse in a nursing home. She has already told us, she'll off herself before going into one, but we decided long ago none of our parents would ever be put into that situation. My 87 yr old mother recently had a health scare and requires 6 months of healing. I've relocated to provide her 24/7 care with my husband's blessing because "she's my mom too."

  3984. My sister spent 6 months in a nursing home before passing away, she changed so much in those 6 months, it's like she lost purpose and the desire to live, everything you said is true, I hope when its my turn it will be at home even if I have no one to really care fkr or about me, kids grow up, life is busy and grandkids grow up, I guess life is life.

  3988. I am working at a nursing home for a quiet long years in a far foreign country away from my native land, I actually don’t stay long in just one place so I worked from one facility to another. Through those years of my experiences, I have already seen myself , what my life lies on when I stay at the nursing home soon to be cared for. There are also good things to be considered but for me that place is like a HORRIBLE , All what being said in your narration are all true. This kind of a place I called it a Departure ,,,,no more growth, there ends our life . I still go back to my home when I get more older because I know there’s no place like home 🏡, FREEDOM is the key to Happiness , it helps you grow still healthier, physically & mentally even when you become more older…just get away from the stress. There are lots to do things inside your house to prevent your being idle. Seniors living in nursing homes are automatically pity, they lost already their capabilities , even they have money they can’t just use or spend it luxury. 😢😢

  3989. These foods can definitely help, but saying 99% of constipation will vanish feels like an overstatement. Constipation has many causes—hydration, physical activity, and underlying health conditions also play a huge role. Diet alone isn’t always the full solution.

  3992. bullshit. my father lived in one of those places for 7 years. i was up there 1-2 times per week, and always on holidays. i knew everybody up there. he could eat at the chow hall pretty much whenever he wanted, except for when they were changing meal service (lunch to dinner, for example.) he had his own studio apt, with his own bed, tv, and recliner. it worked out well for him.

  3994. Sounds a lot like Boot Camp. My problem with being in a Nursing Home are the rules, I still dig music on MY hifi system and sometimes I like it LOUD. Another issue? I own guns. I don't shoot as often now but still have firearms. I think most (all?) nursing Homes frown on inmates having weapons. At a young 73 my plans are to continue livin' my life, my way and that includes smokin' weed (sometimes hash) and drinkin' beer/ale and/or wine. To the excess that I choose. Fuhgeddaboudit.

  4000. Good video. But my reasons to go to nursing home are different. I suffered neurogical disease which made my body unsteady and movements hard to control. I am affraid to walk and stand up, driving car and my hands are unsteady and things are falling from my hands. I live by my own at home and neighbors come very rarely, people are very busy. My beloved small dog thanks to good people and my prayers found loving family. Adapted well, I cannot take him to nursing home. I missed my best friend very very much. So my situation is different from described in a video. I wish you all the best. Jan 83 years old.

  4007. Thats so deeply sad 😞😞😞 who puts their parents in a nursing home??. The nursing home is not what's best for a elder, people don't know and understand the value treasure and the preciousness of elderly people... smh its deeply sad to hear that. I dont understand why kids won't sacrifice their time and life for the parents who sacrificed for them and raised them went through things they'll never tell their kids. I will take my mom in my place and take excellent care of her or I will live with her at her place if she wants to stay at her house. Its no excuse.. It's not that much being busy in the WORLD to put your parents in a nursing home.. ive worked in the nursing home helping others yrs ago and all the elders loved me. I really enjoyed that job until I moved far away and had to resign. I even took care of my grandmother and my great-grandmother in her 90s. May God bless peace and strengthen every elder that lives in a nursing home. 🙏🏾

I have maintained my active life, living in my own apartment cooking, cleaning, driving, shopping and active in a senior center classes. Those friends I made are now gone, others are using walkers or have dementia no longer active. My DNA and my LTC insurance predict I will live to 102. Thank you for making this video.

  4068. I have cognitive decline. The chances are that is will get worse and become dementia. I'd thought of moving into a care facility early so I could get used to it before I loose my self. I've changed my mind. I'm still independent, have views, strong ideas, write poetry, read complex books make lots of decisions every day. I could not let go of my independence until it's gone because my brain is not longer functional. Thank you for spelling it out.

  4071. My grandmother is 93. She has her own apartment in assisted living. She comes and goes as she pleases. They provide 3 meals a day.. They clean her apt about twice a month or so. She can skip meals if she wishes. They have various activities. They have a bus service also. She seems happy. She's been there just over 6 months. We take turns visiting her and taking her to doctors apt or shopping.

  4078. I visited a nursing home when I ran for Executive Council and saw rude, obscene cafeteria attendants commenting to an older gentleman. I complained to the staff, and tried to help the nursing home tenants with things like how to get a senior bus to transport them so they could visit town for shopping, cafes, and the theatre could happen? How to get a non drivers license plate so they had an ID card? How to get a senior job? Even though I did not win the primary, I still investigated the resources available from the State and non-profit agencies and federal government to help them and gave them to the busy administrators.

  4098. I had to go to a rehab which was part of a nursing home in New York. I was in there for 2 months. And yes breakfast had to be a certain time, and we could choose our dinners and everything. They had activities directors and they were always very funny and kind and thoughtful with all of us. And we all had our meals together and it was really quite pleasant. The rehab and the nursing home were all together. The lady next to me sharing the same room was from the nursing home part and had various things wrong with her, and she couldn't even speak but the kindness given to her and the care was absolutely perfect. And I was glad to afford some kind of kindness to her which she responded to. And I made some lovely friends along the way. I was starting to get used to the smile of everyone around me and the Incredibly kind care that I had. I didn't seem to mind very much. In the regiment of the day I had to do physical therapy which was challenging. I had edema very badly and it totally cured up, but 4 days after I got home on January 17th it flared up again. I also have knee problems with arthritis that is serious. But I'm under doctor's cares and I'll be seeing doctors for everything. Now I have the same problem all over. They had given me antibiotics and cleared it up, but there isn't any wound that I have to worry about right now for the same treatment so I just have to keep them cared for on my own. I'll be 82 this year and I live with my very dear daughter who works all day, And sometimes doesn't get home till 7:00 or so... so I'm kind of alone all day. I have Grate Faith and that keeps me happy in my beliefs and I have lovely family even though they're scattered all over it. I hardly ever see them but we text and call. I have to say I had a pretty good relationship, the rehab and if I had to stay longer that would have been fine with me because the tremendous kindness and because I was glad too Minister and be there for others who are lonely. That was very important to me. I always felt like I was a visitor and not because I was getting out at any certain time but just because I'm wanting to care for them and I had a joy about that. So it could have gone on longer. And I feel if I ever cannot take care of myself as I get older, I would like to be in that nursing home in New York just for the kindness alone and the camaraderie. So everyone has a different perspective. The Priest was also there and I could go to mass and have communion. But it was the kindness of the people in charge trying to make everyone Comfortable and they were always so cheerful and happy. And that was a great bonus from being there. The only visitor I had was really my daughter who was working at a place only 15 minutes away but sometimes it was on the weekends because she was so tired from the work she was doing as a daycare teacher. But that's understandable We would talk on the phone or text. So I didn't really have any overwhelming sense of loneliness. And my other family is all very loving and kind and they would come visit sometimes making the trip even though I was in the rehab only. So it wasn't a bad experience at all, and I think if I had to stay there longer it would have been okay. But I know where I want to go if I ever have to go somewhere for long-term care. Again, the tremendous kindness and the fact that I could minister and comfort others around me. So I just wanted to share my thoughts. But I know, I know. I know it's not that way everywhere and I understand this video very completely. All right. God bless and love everyone, and keep us safe in a very precarious world😊

If you can find a good helper who is honest and trustworthy, you are fortunate. I fight as much as possible to stay at home and hope my good health (relatively speaking) remains. I would recommend the home if at all possible. The staff at the "home away from home" may be good, but it's not the same. Warmest wishes and sincere prayers for all of you. 🤗 🙏

The more you exercise , stay away from FDA drugs and lead a good life is the longer healthier life you'll have . I endorse my Uncle's decision and I with great hopes you'll do the same for a great life .

Nursing Homes are Corporations (businesses) and it's about the Meat and the Money ( keeping a bed filled to get the money and providing "services" (LOL) for the cheapest ( low staff coverage per person/ overworked staff/ low quality, cheap food) cost cutting way the "government regulations" (LOL) will allow. Loss of privacy, indepedence, decision making, forced in continience, severe loneliness , isolation, depression, loss of mobility, over medicated, abuse, neglect, etc...

Let me tell you that every time we finished and left that place we felt our energy drained out of us . These people never have family that visit them and some of them are being stolen from their own children and I saw ugly things . I pray that I won’t have to go in these places ! Oh yes and the diapers they leave you in them with every thing in it . Rather they don’t have time or that nice owner with the nice smile ! Hypocrite they don’t change your dypers because they want to save money . And sometimes men pees on the floor and it stays there until someone reports it ! One problem is personel ! And who is going to want to work there . My mother was in her late 90’s and they stole her ring ! Of corse they are going to tell you that your mother gave it to me etc etc etc 👿

  4160. For those of you who may be thinking of going into a nursing home, you may want to think twice. The biggest mistake I made was trusting the nursing home to take care of my wife. She was abused there back in 2019. She passed away after being admitted into the hospital. So if you are able to take of yourself, please stay out of those places. Nursing homes are nothing but prisons for the elderly.

  4179. I’m sorry, but nursing homes are the pits!! I feel for anyone who has to go to a nursing home! I would refuse to go to a nursing home! I worked in a nursing home for a very short time and it was horrible. Have they treated the patients!! I wasn’t exactly real. Welcome there because I wanted to do extra things for the patients and that did not sit well with the others so I got out of there as soon as I could! That’s a bad place to be ! I am staying in My Home until I am out of here!!

  4201. I used to do licensed home health care. I received my training in a classroom and a skilled nursing facility. One woman I visited lived with her son and daughter in law. The woman was about 85 .the last time I went to see her , her face was black and blue, very badly bruised I asked her , who did this to you, she said her daughter in law She was hiding around the corner and had been drinking. I had to slip out quietly and report it to my supervisor. Mercy people, you can never be too careful.

  4228. No need to wait till 70. I got serious about this at about 55. It felt odd at first, and some gave me grief about it. As the next 10 years went on, I could easily see this was the best choice for me. Yes, for many they cant get comfortable with this kind of lifestyle, but for others like me, it was like leaving the crap behind and sticking with only the good stuff from there onward. Just read you local obituary column and take note of how old they were.......... the time to get serious is right now......life is short, and may be even shorter than you are thinking !

  4243. Aging takes away much of your ability to function. Yes, hold onto as much as you can as long as you can. But be realistic when you no longer can maintain your independence and if you can not afford to bring help in or do not have family available to help you, make the most of your time in a nursing home. Be as sociable as you can. Show joy to your wokers who do come in to do things for you, even when they are not very friendly. Plant a seed of love in their hearts. Do not think of just yourself and maybe you will find something good while you are there. Blessings to all who are walking this journey. It is very difficult for all. Jesus is our strength, our joy, our everything!

It's not only true he's on her way home I'm 81 and I live at home but because of my health I have had to let my granddaughter come to live with me to help me because I no longer can take care of myself entirely my husband died in 2022 because in the nursing home they didn't care for him and his health went down so bad so quick and he died I didn't want to ever go to a nursing home myself so I thought that dabbing my granddaughter here would be easier at better However she wants to do everything for me and won't let me do things for myself She gets disappointed if I don't let her help me so here I am in my bed Or in the living room in my old care doing nothing to do period So be careful people even if you stay home you could lose it all if you aren't careful listening to this post has made me see that I am in the same boat yes Just not the nursing home period.

  4281. So many middle aged children put Mom in a nursing home thinking that "she'll be happy there, she won't be alone and will make many friends"...and then they never visit or care for Mom when he ages rapidly and declines in that prison like institution. IF they visited on a frequent basis...more than once a week at the least, IF they were around to see how staff treats not only Mom but the other "residents", IF they stuck around to "play" the inane games of Bingo, and bat the balloon that the residents are required to go to even if they would rather curl up and die in their beds instead, If they ate 3 meals a day with Mom---at the regimented time required to go to the meal room and saw how nasty the food was compared to that lovely pre entry "visit", IF they took the time to stop in a few rooms and ask the neighboring residents how they are doing, and what is going on, especially when there are no visitors, then maybe, just maybe they would be ashamed of themselves, and not be fooled into going into this hell when their OWN children try to dump there one day.

  4292. Thanks for this very informative video about what it is really like when you move into a nursing home. I think assisted living homes are much better as my mom got out to walk whenever she wanted and the care taker came once a day and made the meals my mom wanted to eat. My mom had two indoor cats. The assisted living homes had a recreation room so if mom wanted people she went there.

  4293. My sister's husband put his mom in a nursing home she was giving them alot of problems when she was living with them) she had her own room but she was also demanding) my sister had breakfast, lunch, and dinner for her) and when it was time to take her bath her mother in law refuse, she had a TV in her bedroom but she would watch the TV in the living room and fall asleep) when her son went to visit her she told him she wanted to go back home so he told her the nursing home was her home now) she wanted to use my sister as her slave and let her cater to her 24/7 when her water ran out of her bottle instead of asking my sister if she could have another water bottle she would shake the empty bottle at my sister's face) so her son finally put her in a nursing home

  4317. Here are my observations: 1) No effort to interact with others- Bible studies, church, other groups, 2) What about a fitness room? treadmill, weights, etc 3) No effort to pursue entertainment TV, videos, news 4) Are there no programs available sponsored by the facility or even outside organizations- churches, community activities? Just a few missing thoughts that might make your life better.

  4318. I have been considering it since I don’t want to be a burden to my daughter because she works and loves being her own caretaker..now that I see this and remember the short time I went to one for physiotherapy ..strengthening.. i cannot recommend it at all. Your life is gone..taken away from you. Thank God my stay was only for 2 weeks. I couldn’t wait to leave. I was so very thankful to God again and again.. I must say though that the physiotherapy dept. was wonderful but the room, nursing care and room mates were..not too acceptable.

Most young people can't do what I can do, and I get lots of stares. I notice it takes longer to recover...I love that I can train hard and come home and nap it off! LOL My dietary habits are on point. I don't feel guilty about falling asleep at 5 pm and starting my day at 2 a.m. I'm all over the clock! I live west of Denver and back up to the last of open spaces. If I drive east I go to the city if I go west I'm immediately in the country. Priceless...I have entertained interviewing for an older student who could have their rent cut if they shovel for me...I don't know. I do like to let each day unfold as it needs too. Great video Thank you! I am so grateful to have watched it to put things in perspective.

Senior citizens with good mental and physical abilities can live in a senior citizen home which is much better , if they have partners they live with them too. Money is the key unfortunately ❤

  4346. My brother in law made his family take an oath that they would never put him in a nursing home. Then he went on to abuse his health with smoking, drinking and eating junk food. Don’t ask how much exercise he did-none. So in his early seventies his health failed and his poor wife worked like a slave to keep him at home. Every nursing home is not the same, but the good ones cost many thousand a month more than an ordinary person could pay.

  4405. There is almost no Creatine in most diets. The liver is meant to be a Creatine regulator, not a Creatine source. As you age the liver isn't able to produce the Creatine which the body HAS to have. The body begins to eat its own muscles to get creatine. Take one gram of Creatine every day as a supplement. While you won't notice it on a day to day basis - your body will quit wasting away over time.

  4422. Sad, listening to your story about the disadvantages of a nursing home. The only time I thought people chose nursing home because they could not cope with caring for themselves. One could become a danger to oneself or others. Very difficult decision as one doesn't want to be a burden to family in your last days or years of your life.

  4426. My aunt is in a nursing home because she has dementia, and her daughter put her there. I went to visit her the second time and i noticed that she now has a hard time walking and needs a walker and actually has an ancle bracelet so she will not walk away into the elevator. It dawned on me that it seems she was in an elderly jail! She is only 83 years old. I am 70 years old and I'd rather die in my home than live like this and only if I cannot take care of myself and incapicated would I accept this for me.

He’s 6 foot 1 and I am 115 pounds. He is heart of my heart but I am so weary of the caregiver duties. Please pray for us…it would break my heart to put him in another nursing home. He was in one for many years and I fought to get him out 😢

  4442. Assisted living is a great choice. My mom lives 5 minutes from me. In her own apartment. They have their own restaurant, can wake up when they want, have their own furniture, eat when and whatever you want. They can make food in their kitchen or go to the restaurant. Take walks ALONE whenever you want. It isn't the same at all as a nursing home. They have parties, field trips to great places. Seriously, I am 61, I wish I could live there! Tour where you will be. Nursing homes are NOT the same as assisted living.

  4476. Yes, my friend has been there three years. She just died yesterday sadly but I visit her six days a week for three years. I could not believe what went on at a nursing home. She was paralyzed. She could not move her hands her feet and they would set her food in front of her and walk off. I did not help her to eat would not open the milk. Left her soiled in her diapers for days I got upset, jumped all over the Nurse and they kicked me out for nine months. Sandy quit eating as she died. I called her every day. I feel so guilty. I wish I held my temper so I do understand God bless.

  4504. I am 72. Suffering from constipation for 12 years. Issue is a combination of 2 problems. One is hard stool and another is loss of motion feeling. Stool may be soften by adding fibre riched foods in diet while loss of motion feeling is a different problem. Adding bacteria in the form of probiotic in diet and drinking a few glasses of warm or moderate hot water in the morning may be helpful.

  4523. I worked as a CNA in a Nursing Home. I know what you mean. There were some residents who had family visits daily. But they were not the norm. Most people had family members come at least once a week. And then there were those who never had any contact at all .That was the saddest part of all. When I had to put my dad in a Nursing Home there was no other option. He was too ill. I have a lot of children and we made sure that at least one of us visited him every single day. And we did. Dad also had many friends who were there almost every day. We made sure that he had someone there for him each day. But he had been very socially active and he still got very lonely. He wanted someone with him all the time, not just once a day. And he had Dementia and Mercers disease, which complicated things. But we did our best to see him every day. I’m 74 yo now, and I live with one of my daughters and her family, and also a second daughter. We have tried having me stay at other of my children’s homes, but I always come back here. This is where I’ll stay unless I need to go to the Nursing Home. I see my other kids as often as my health allows. So far so good.

  4530. Such an insightful video! After turning 60, many of us face more digestive challenges, but it's reassuring to know that certain foods can help restore balance. I’ve personally found that incorporating fiber-rich foods like chia seeds and avocados really makes a difference in gut health. Also, staying hydrated is often overlooked – water, herbal teas, and even bone broth can work wonders. Curious to hear if anyone else has tried adding probiotics to their diet? They’ve been a game-changer for me. Let’s share more experiences and tips for better digestive health in our golden years!

RESIDENTS has to move in one direction. Not a good sight to see. If you are alert with faculties intact avoid NURSING HOME.

  4563. Eat dragon fruites. The fruite works like laxative (don't eat nore than 2). It promotes regular bowel movement and gut health. The high fiber fruite is rich in antioxident. vitamin C, Lycopene. It is also low in sodium, sugar, calory, and fat. Great fruite! Americans are not familiar with this fruit. You can get it from H Mart .. or Asian grocery stores. Good luck! 👍

  4585. Call the food at night. Supper and eat that Supper before Sunset. Leave three hours gap maximum according to heaviness or lightness of that meal and then retire to bed for assimilation of the digested food with deep sleep. Enter Thuriya state of being and get charged ethereally for next days super awareness. By Sleeping on the left side one breath into Pingala Nadi( neurotransmission channel) through right nostril which heats up the body and therefore beneficial for Vaata Constitution. Time before Sunset is Vaata Time. The posture for sleeping is Ananda Shayan or Eternal Sleep posture which is Spiritually elevating and emancipating. lord Vishnu is always seen in this posture which is a Yoga Nidra posture. Half of heart ailments arise from Vaata or Blockage of Air. 100 percent of all pains within human body is from blockage of Air transmission. The Spirit is the witnessing, redeeming and sensing agent which is subtler than air, resides within air and may be considered as the Astral body of the Soul .

  4592. It is not a black and white situation, there are grey areas, there are the pros and cons. If deterioration of health in mind and body occurs, it may not be totally due to the nursing home routine. Aging also plays a part. A person using his tools doing things around the house may find his energy levels gradually falling due to age and there are many things he would not be able to do like maybe climbing a ladder, using a drill, hammer etc. Ive seen this happen. Besides i think you would find a peer group you could relate to using your free time to relax, exercise, develop a deeper connect with God, just sit and enjoy the luxury of free time, just to sit/stand and stare, admire nature and all of God's creation, relate at a deeper level with people who now become your new family. Of course, there will be a lot of things we could grumble about also. But i have come to realise i forget that i can no longer do things i used to the way i used to and i have to seek help or avoid doingbthose things.

  4615. I am a retired RN and worked OR & CCU for 30 years. I thought I had retired but due to circumstances I had to return to work for the medical insurance and took a job in an assisted living home thinking it would be "easy." Are you kidding!!! I was in charge of 50 residents with 2 helpers. Many residents should have been in healthcare where there was double the help. The place had stylish common rooms and a lovely dining room all for show and to lure family into placing their loved one somewhere "nice." Alas, all the pitfalls you mentioned where there and the staff were so very busy that even if they wanted to listening and tender care were almost impossible. Stay out if you can!
