As for myself, recently turned 80, i personally shy away from all the age jokes, etc. , quietly accept help given, even if not needed, as it is a nice bonding with fellow humans…there’s so much good we can fill these days with, and I personally look forward to each day, accepting they aren’t all necessarily going to be ‘’good’’ days—but, that I live to see another day !! I think having cancer has taught me a lot !
