Many of us expect to decline as we age: walking more slowly, memory starting to fade, energy dwindling. But then there are the SuperAgers: people in their 80s, 90s and even Centenarians who are as sharp, vibrant, and engaged as folks decades younger. They remind us that aging…

Two recent pieces – one from McKnight’s Senior Living and another from JD Supra – grabbed attention with the same finding: 76% of older adults are not even considering senior living. Both were reporting on the University of Michigan’s National Poll on Healthy Aging…

Over recent months, I have been finding that I get decidedly out of breath when I climb the stairs or, indeed, any incline. We have an old town house on three levels, so I am frequently going up the stairs. Moreover, I live in a hilly part of London, so it is hard to avoid walking up (or down) a slope…

Serving as a Power of Attorney is often considered a purely financial or legal role. And it is – you’re responsible for paying bills, managing property, handling investments, taking care of real estate, and coordinating benefits. But for me, it’s always been…

Grief after 60 is not only about losing people we love. It is also about losing plans, places, routines, and a sense of security. Today’s economy and politics make these losses feel sharper.
