My dear 93 yr old Mother-in-Law offered to come and help me with my cooking, housework etc.. She lives in an upstairs apartment, walks everywhere almost daily no matter what the weather , carries her groceries up the stairs and walks to get her hair done, dresses very nice all the time and is so unbelievable.. On no meds and feels great most of the time.. I think its wonderful that a few are so fortunate... Just wanted to share..

Remarkable at her age, wouldn't we all like her secret-lol.
Take her up on her offer, I bet that would make her happy to feel needed and use her "mothering" skills again.

Not sure I could, then I would feel more disabled. A 93 yr old taking care of a 68 yr old.. Should be the other way around... tks.

What a doll! She probably would enjoy feeling needed and also wants to help. I would let her do it.
