I love him, my old man
“That’s just old age” or “I’m not getting any younger” sound familiar? Have you ever heard your Dad say this? Has he been complaining of the same old aches and pains for years? Does he dismiss aches and pains as ‘old age’? The human body is very resilient and the truth is, he shouldn’t be […]
