In youth we run into difficulties. In old age, difficulties run into us. Beverly Sills, Famous Opera Singer, b. 1929
It is a rare and difficult attainment to grow old gracefully and happily. Arnold Palmer, American Professional Golfer, b. 1929
As life expectancy continues to increase, older adults have growing needs for proper health care, assistance with activities of daily living, socialization, and planned recreation. Families are often unable to cope with the required care giving responsibilities. Health and safety issues become prominent. Decisions regarding personal care, health care, and living arrangements, e.g., assisted living facilities or retirement communities, need to be made. Subjects of power of attorney and conservatorship over estate and person are often taboo. These critical issues may not be addressed until there is a medical crisis that forces decision-making during a time of severe stress.
