As I say in my books, let me go ahead of you and fall into all the pitfalls that there may be and after much considering, I decided to try out 10 Old Age Homes, Retirement Centres and places that house the Elderly. Going into the first place was nerve wracking, scary as they did have a room for me but I was put into the room while the body of an elderly man, still lay waiting for the funeral home, to fetch. If I had never given over to the unknown, this was the day that I gave over without a fight. It was a home that took in any Elderly and was affordable for many. No lights at night, were at the order of the day. It was when the Management found out that I was allergic to Soya, that I was banned from all meals for the month. I was allowed to fill 2 bottles of water daily and it came in handy, since I had paid for food for the month but this was now denied. Ten days on my knees with 2 bottles of water a day, left me hairless and my skin hung like a giant coat on a hanger around me. Yours truelly was determined to show this Management a thing. I was not going to die and I was too broke to not take the challenge. On completing my time as soonest, they also forced me to stay an extra month or to pay for it. At this home my heart cringed when my gaze lingered toolong on the emaciated faces. And yes, I reported it to authorities, who found the manager at her best behaviour and accused me of being Neurologically imbalanced. When going to a new place that the Elderly stay at, the abuse that was being done to people shocked me but the victimising ones always made sure that they were covered and no clues could be found. This negative and disrespect that was aimed at the ones who bent over backwards for their children, to make the lives of them, better. Today I have seen many Elderly dropped off at Old Age Homes and left to die.
But it' not all bad news, go with me on holiday to the seaside,where my arthritic body, took a sudden run down dunes and could not stop until I lay face down in the sea. To crown it all, our bodies, it has just been discovered, makes changes around 70, making one feel young again. These changes being to steer us into the final curtain. At round 70 our bodies regenerate and kick in new hormones and cells for the next lap. Today at round 70 life throws one a pep pill and the ones that were put off work to sit on the porch to retire, receive a new regenerating of the body and people wonder what to do with it all, now they are not needed anymore.
