All Our Tomorrows

All Our Tomorrows

          We have known many of you for decades. Gotten to know your financial concerns. Helped you plan for and enjoy your retirement. Watched your family grow. You have honored us with your trust and confidence.

          We have born witness to your family’s health issues. Births. Deaths. Traumatic responses to illness. Brilliant recoveries.

          We have also watched as dementia and Alzheimer’s has knocked at many of your front doors. National statistics can be shocking: as many as 50% of the American population over 50 may be visited by these mental diseases. There is no cure. We can do our best. We can eat wisely, sleep well and love with abandon.

          Every few years I send out this missive for you and for your families. Please find attached a comprehensive review. ‘Detect the Signs’ and ‘Plan the Next Steps’. We hope you read it and share it with your family.

          I believe these steps can also help to diminish the possibility of such illnesses coming to your door:

                     Have a positive mental attitude towards your life

                     Eat wisely and in proportion to your nutritional needs

                     Stay fit: exercise, be athletic, keep your heart rate elevated for at least 20 minutes daily

          Be involved in your community, however you define community

          View your glass as half full – never half empty

          Smile – it requires fewer muscles to smile than to frown

          Live within your means – financially, morally, intellectually and socially

          Offer your hand in support, never in demand

And don’t forget to

Eat wisely

Sleep well

Love with abandon!
