After my husband became disabled, our lives completely changed. We had lost a lot of things that we could do as a couple, but we also had a lot to live for.

How do you stay fabulous?Reading, learning, teaching, writing a book and beading. As long as I keep an open mind and continue to learn, life is enjoyable and it keeps me acting and feeling younger than my biological age.
