Recently, my friend, Ronni Bennett of Time Goes By (http://www.timegoesby.net/) posted a video done by Dr. Bill Thomas appealing to Oprah to do more stories on growing older (not how to stay young) but the reality of getting older, not so bad friends.
Here is the video: http://youtube.com/watch?v=rXsqwesaU_A
Bill Thomas is a noted and respected geriatrician who changed the world of nursing homes for the better and who is passionate about aging and elders. He believes that its not the age but the person and we put too much emphasis on growing old negativity.
I agree with him and hope he gets on Oprah! In fact I am posting this on my Twitter account to also get her attention.

Dr. Thomas' video is interesting. I hope he goes on Oprah as well. He comes off a little more esoteric than he really is though.
ReplyDeleteDon't you just want to hug him? He really is a great guy making a great difference. Thanks for posting the link.
