Ep 43 – Story Exercises To Determine Your Stage Of Aging

Guest Anne Maggs, author of “I Never Died Before” introduces her fascinating story of two elderly women striving to remain in their beloved Victorian mansion by writing advice columns on the hard choices facing seniors. Each column has a companion exercise to explore such issues as: making pro-active housing decisions, weighing the risks and benefits of proposed medical treatments, filling out advance directives, writing final letters to loved ones, and funeral planning.

This is not a book about healthy living. This is not a book about living longer. This is a book about aging with courage.

Based on the belief that aging is a natural process and not a medical emergency, I Never Died Before prepares readers for the emotional and unpredictable journey of aging and dying.

Imagine yourself as one of the characters and use the exercises in the book to assess your stage of aging.

• Determine the level of help you want to stay where you are
• Plan your next destination out of seven options
• As a side benefit to the exercises, you will learn which activities Insurance Co’s look at to determine coverage.
