America's elderly population will nearly double by 2050, according to a Pew Research report. As baby boomers enter retirement, concern exists as to who will care for them as they age. Traditionally, children have accepted the caregiving responsibilities, but those caregiving roles are becoming...
My relatives have all died of natural causes, and most of them were 80 or older, so they all lived long lives. I know it is sad to lose relatives, but at that age, people do die. It happens.

I have had company for a few days in the past but this time my grandpa and grandma are visiting for 3 weeks. I am really helping them out. My tabby is easy going and sociable but my Manx is skiddish. My main question is I have to put the litterbox in my bedroom and want to avoid putting in...

One dream was of my grandfather, who passed away, when I was a baby, but I had a dream about him as well. I never had the chance to have a relationship that I could remember w/him, but in my dream, he was sitting at a table...
...of all their money? I have noticed that a lot of older people are being harrased by some relative who intend to steal, extort, or batter money out of their hard earned retiremnet money? Did anyone else see this trend?
All my relatives hate me and my sister. My mom gets on the phone and just whines about us. Of course, she doesn't share anything about herself...like when she's complaining about the mess my sister makes while her room is a pigstye or when she used to hit me every night because of her f-in...
I myself am a dream interpreter, but I can't figure this out.
When my Mother and Brother was alive, I seldom dreamed of them. Maybe once every 3 or 4 years. They both died in Oct 2004. Now I dream of them at least once a week, for the past 2 years.
We weren't close and lived 1200 miles apart...
