  2. 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. 🎉

  6. 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

  8. 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

  12. I am 90 years old and have just started doing this. It has been a blessing to me.

  13. This is the best advice I ever heard thanks for sharing keep up good work. ❤

  14. 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.

  15. Excellent advice, easy when living alone. 🌹

  16. #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.

  17. 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.

  18. This is how it is with me, at 70 years, I just want peace, quiet and to be alone in solitude.

  19. Thank you. Im learning from your videos

  20. Great subject. People need to understand what is going to happen.

  21. 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.

  22. We live as long as God sees fit.

  23. Very important information....there is much truth in this.....❤

  24. 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.

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

  26. 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

  27. 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!

  28. 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.

  29. 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

  30. 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!

  31. 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 👍

  32. @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.

  33. 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.

  34. 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!👍🙋

  35. 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.

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

  39. 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.

  40. 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.

  41. 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.

  42. BIG THANKS for your excellent discussion💕. It is a great help for us as senior citizen👍😁
    12
  43. 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.😂

  44. 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

  45. 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.

  46. So true. Being alone doesn't mean being lonely, & being at peace with one's own self is both liberating & fulfilling.

  47. 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

  48. 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
  49. 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.❤😊

  50. 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!
