So, Grandma (my mother) is visiting us again in glorious Chester County. As I told you in an earlier blog from this year, she turned 90 in April. It takes her roughly a half hour to walk from our kitchen to the TV room. It takes her about 10-15 tries to get up from sitting on the dining room chairs. When she watches TV, you can hear it from across the street (when she leaves all our ears ring for days). I have to repeat myself so often I get bi-lateral TMJ pain that lasts for days.
Please don't take this the wrong way- of course I feel blessed she is here. However, when I observe her it is just amazing to think of all the organs and muscles and bones that have been working so hard lo these many years. An incredible testament to the durability of the human frame.
I implore you all don't take for granted your frame. Do the things you need to do to help it along. I don't want it to take you guys 45 minutes to walk from the kitchen to the TV area to watch TV (although that is not such a horrible thing).
Stretch, exercise, get adjusted, watch your posture, and be healthy. If you do all those things then you can help your body deal with living on earth.
Here is to all the GRANDMA'S out there. God Bless Them All!
Yours in good health,
Dr. Ray and Staff
