It really actually worries me that it's going to get worse (it's been trending that way for some time now) and pt 2 is I'm afraid i'm going to turn into them when I get to that age.
Sorry for the vent. I know there are others who are hurting worse. I just wish I had "normal" parents lol. But then again, not sure how "normal" I am either some days. Ugh.
The fact that your parents are in their 70's and they are still together is a blessing. Unfortunately that's not "normal" these days. Your "normal" is very different than a lot of other people's.
