keep enjoying it while you can. i have gloucoma and macular degeneration (along with everything else) i slowly make it to the grocery store and back. but, i do it. and will keep pushing even if i need to wear 2 glasses. jole, joke joke BUT YOU WILL HAVE THE MEMORIES SO DO NOT FORGET THEM.

Are you interested in any Church Activities? Ours is very community oriented and our seniors are very well cared for. I also do water aerobics at the Senior Center, and I know there are a lot of programs there too.

dear msrylou, where is your church located? thanks. sounds good for pain.

I'm in Denver, CO. It is a Presbyterian Church since I was born Presbyterian! I wonder if you have a Senior Center in your neck of the woods? The way it works here is that when you turn 65, you apply for a Silver Sneakers Card and Medicare will pick up the expenses for any of the gym activities. I'm not sure if it also covers the activities in the adjunct center but I would think so.

@marylou705 What is Silver Sneakers? Is that something that is all over? I have never heard of it.
Thanks.
JK

Sorry, I missed your post.  I'm thinking Silver Sneakers - for 65 plus - may only operate in Colorado.  Marylou8 

I'm sorry, I keep missing posts.  My Church is in Castle Rock, CO.  We are very community oriented.  Our Youth will be going into the Community tomorrow to do jobs that are needed.

Here's a link to the website for Silver Sneakers: https://www.silversneakers.com/. Some of the Medicare plus programs offer their programs as part of the health insurance. Minnesota UCare for Seniors offers the program, more info here:

Thank you for posting this.  @marylou8

The link I posted for UCare of Minnesota for their Silver Sneakers info was wrong. Here is the correct link:
