Adventures in Senior Living shows you that your retirement years
can be your most fulfilling, productive, and fun years. You'll have
more time to work in that garden you love, make quilts with your
friends, spend time with your loved ones, and get exercise. But,
possibly even more important than that, you'll have the ability to
participate in your community on an entirely new level and to make
a difference in other people's lives as well as your own. The
life-loving, generous people who come together in this wonderful
book are sure to inspire you as they speak about their
accomplishments that include: recording books on tape for blind
people conducting missionary work at home and abroad brightening
the lives of patients in nursing homes and hospitals teaching
Sunday school caring for a spouse with Alzheimer's delivering meals
on wheels to shut-in people establishing a battered women's shelter
rescuing prostitutes from the streetThis book presents retirees,
teachers of courses in aging and retirement, activity directors at
retirement and nursing homes, family members, and health and mental
health care providers with many stories of extraordinary
volunteerism, service, and kindness, but it also talks about the
needs of retirees and their daily, more personal experiences. To
this end, Adventures in Senior Living discusses the importance of
continuing study, discussion, meditation, prayer, and fitness in
the lives of seniors.
