I was in a skilled nursing facility one day to visit hospice patients. A darling little lady sitting in the corner signaled to me to come closer. I walked over to her and she asked me a question. She said, “they call these the golden years.” Then she said to me, “Do you know what the only thing golden about them is?” I replied, wondering what was coming next. She replied loudly, “Your urine!” I thought she was going to fall out out of her wheel chair laughing. I joined her, not in the wheelchair Plum Bob, but laughing!!! Made my day.

That's it for sure. The Golden Showers Years.
When you have a sense of humor at that age and condition, now that's priceless! Thanks

Funny stuff. I had a client in an assisted living facility. I got to know some of the other residents. Two of them were women. One was 103 years old. Another 102. They were friends. The one that was 102 said to me one day, "do you know what I like about living here?" I was expecting the answer to be the other people, the food, friendship, etc. I said no, tell me. She said, "I'm not the oldest person living here." She was so sharp and funny.
