  • DON'T WRITE ME OFF: THIRTY-NINE STORIES OF OLDER ADULTHOOD

    The age when the body starts to go is about the age when wisdom starts to come. In thirty-nine personal narratives, the storytellers in this book, ages 59-102, talk tachlis (truth) about what age has given and what age has taken away. Through stories of loss — of faculties, of physical prowess, of spouses, of children — we see the growing strength and perseverance gained through life's challenges. We also see the growing appreciation for life's simple joys — making new friends, baking, playing mahjongg and canasta, starting a readers theater, adopting a pet, volunteering, learning, exploring faith, and enjoying grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and great-great-grandchildren. In this volume, thirty-nine unique individuals create a colorful mosaic that illuminates older adulthood in an engaging, deeply touching, and often very entertaining read.
