And that is what it should be, a PROACTIVE CHOICE. NOT a knee-jerk response, especially made by family members …. to a fall, Fx, or other malady that impacts mobility and independence. ????

Thanks for sharing. The insights and resources are invaluable.

So glad you and James are connecting on this topic, he is a great example of someone choosing to engage earlier in a community and making a BIG positive difference in the lives of others

James's story is a great reminder that age is just a number. ?? #PositiveAging
