It's an odd realization when you reach the age that you should not be surprised to hear of former classmates passing away. Late 40s now and it seems like this happens once a year for the last couple of years.
Learned yesterday that a girl I knew since kindergarten, but had not been close to since high school... although FB does what it can to connect people... she passed away from liver/kidney failure. 47 is too young.

My parents had been having parties at their home for years and years, nearly every Saturday night for a decade. Slowly, the volume of people began to wane, as people were literally dying week after week. One week, they'd be partying and shooting pool in my parent's basement - they next, they'd be dead of a stroke or heart attack. They're at the point now where there's only one or two couples left that are in their age group and it seems like they're going to funerals more often than not lately. Getting old sucks. |

For some, I'd imagine that's true.
For others, like elderly that are victims of strokes, which is all too common, I'm not so sure... Advanced Parkinson's, Dementia, Alzheimer's - no thanks. My 91 year old grandmother passed away last year and my mom had been caring for her every day for 5 years, the last three in a nursing home. My grandmother had advanced Dementia was not herself. My mom said it was horrible to see her deteriorate. |

Physically the golden years are not golden. A pure lie for sure. |

Have you thought of any backup plans or alternative ways to make money while pursuing a different career? I hear what youre saying in that you want to leave your current profession but at the same time you need it making the decision difficult. |
