Can't argue with that.

If your father or mother is above 67, please pause and read this slowly.

At that age, life begins to feel different for them. The world moves faster, but their bodies move slower. The things they once did effortlessly now require effort. Their strength is not what it used to be, and even if they don’t say it, they feel it.

What they need now is not pressure. Not stress. Not arguments about money or past mistakes. They need stability. They need reassurance. They need to feel safe.

If they have savings, protect it. This is not the stage for risky investments or “let’s try this opportunity.” It is the stage for preservation. Capital safety matters more than high returns. Peace of mind matters more than profit.

If they depend on you financially, don’t see it as a burden. See it as a privilege. The same hands that once carried you are now weaker. The same voices that defended you now speak softer. Support them with dignity, not pity.

And beyond money, give them something deeper.

Call them without being in a hurry.
Sit with them without checking your phone every two minutes.
Let them repeat stories you’ve heard before. One day, you will wish to hear those stories again.

At 67 and above, what they truly fear is not death. It is loneliness. It is feeling forgotten.

Take care of their health. Help them organize their documents. Make sure they are not being financially manipulated. Protect them from stress. But most importantly, protect their heart.

Because one day, the chair they sit on will be empty.

And no amount of money will buy back one more conversation.

@mattFarris After a lumpectomy you wouldn't wake up lying on your side, you'd also still be in recovery with nurses around you

@JodiePortugal I was born in 1958 and didn’t have a problem being left handed. My dad however, had his hand tied behind his back in the 40’s how times change

@Kevenlaw @Survivinthe20s Decimalisation day was my 13th birthday and you feel old 😂

@hwrightxo I always put subtitles on and have done for the last couple of years, believe me it helps!

@PK1_F1_Fan @MartinSLewis I’d worn gas permeable lenses for 50 years, just had my cataracts done so not needing them now. My issue, having worn them for so long was the drooping eyelids! I was constantly having to open my eyes wide to have photos taken or I looked like I was blinking.

@1812forever @dancesnomore @KirstieMAllsopp And a non verbal autistic child can join in yes?
You really don't have a clue

[💙 Lesley Spain 💙 @Kissosweet]

@lizbarnesrhyl @HelenHelenbaxt @KirstieMAllsopp They struggle.
You try caring for a non verbal autistic 3yr old that doesn’t understand instructions or table etiquette & has meltdowns
Colouring books and crayons don’t work
Parents with autistic & other serious conditions are lucky to have help these days even if it is an iPad

[💙 Lesley Spain 💙 @Kissosweet]

@TheDaveBrookes @KirstieMAllsopp Exactly this!

[💙 Lesley Spain 💙 @Kissosweet]

@KirstieMAllsopp My grandson is 3 years old and non verbal autistic. He has an iPad at the table to keep him calm and to help him in public settings. Busy places can be very unsettling for him.
DO NOT JUDGE!

@JulieTaylorLan1 @Lookinupatstars I've just gone through the same thing, had surgery yesterday, lumpectomy and lymph nodes removed for biopsy.
Very lucky to catch it early after a routine mammogram.
🤛 we've got this!

@AlanFro03757514 @chrishollinsTV I also knew John from the Army & Navy days in Bromley.
A very friendly man with a beautiful family, very polite. I served them regularly in the Coffee Lounge.
Chris you definitely take after your father.
Sending love to you and your family x
