Disability Adaptations? In my house? No!
Ageing Well, But The Odd Problem?

Disability Adaptations? In my house? No!

Why isnt it seen as ordinary to have a grab bar in a shower?. Shouldn’t we assume it normal and sensible for there to be one? Could we provoke a feeling that hotels and people who don’t have one are being rather silly?

At 84 my Frailty Score is 3. Good? Bad? Yours?
Ageing Well, But The Odd Problem?

At 84 my Frailty Score is 3. Good? Bad? Yours?

Where are you on the Frailty Scale?
High enough?
Something you should be doing about it?
Get back to the optimum curve?
Make sure you dont slide?

And be #AgeProud about it!

Caught Out! Unwitting Ageism – About Chairs!
Let's Challenge Unthinking Ageism

Caught Out! Unwitting Ageism – About Chairs!

Stranded! Beached whale feeling. But that rapidly turned to chuckles.

“I have to ask for help to get up from a chair in the office of an organisation that espouses Age Friendly places!”

Lovely….However what was really interesting was that it had never occurred to them.

At 80+ That Pause. The One When You Stand Up and Freeze!
Ageing Well, But The Odd Problem?

At 80+ That Pause. The One When You Stand Up and Freeze!

The moment they feel gravity, the Knees are on strike. “Dont” they scream “ Dont you dare move!” Threats of unknown horrors form worrying clouds.

So what do you do?

So here I am, Joyce at 80+…

...also known as Grandma Williams. I've travelled the world, written books, been a Physio & TV Presenter. Now I'm 80+ and I'm blogging about the fun and nonsense of being ancient in a modern world and experiencing everyday ageism in all its glory!
