A Matter of Perspective

Meet Mr. Spry an energetic type guy moves with speed to and fro really fast he does go. Looking fit and so trim no health problems for him all good things on his plate at his age he looks great! Out to walk in the morning came this pain as a warning a hospital visit that day to hear what doctors might say. Came some news like a flash hopeful thoughts might they dash not much time left to spend your life is close to the end. While Doc I tend to agree it's perspective you see because we've been here before and I'm just 104!

Cute. We're taking care of my mom who just turned 101. We know the drill. We try to do no harm.
