"My Mother Had Alzheimer's. Now My Husband Has It, Too."
By Robin Pinkerton, 66
Q: What are the hardest parts taking care of your husband?

You spend, in our case, 38 years together. It has been a wonderful marriage and yet all the wonderful memories that go along with having that kind of union are mine alone...

“What Keeps You Going?”
I was asked that question on The Rant podcast by Barbara Rose Brooker, age activist, author and founder of AgeMarch.
My CPA and friends keep asking me the same question. It’s NOT about the money. I love what I do and publishing The Scoop allows me to tell the stories of so many inspiring folks age 50-100+. It’s one of my joys in life and helps keep me going.
