Quotes by Amy Cameron O’Rourke (?)

“Stage Three: The parent just wants to stay home and may no longer do minor chores like taking out the garbage or retrieving the mail or newspapers. They may skip meals unless someone else prepares them or nap more often. At this stage some may say it takes “too much energy to live.” You might also notice a loss of interest in their family members and their activities.”

“This is very common as older people enter the fragile years. They may see a physical therapist, but they are not interested in doing the exercises at home. The stretching and bending can be painful for them, and at this stage in life, they don’t see that there will be any long-term rewards, or they don’t care about long-term rewards.”
