6 hours agoHi!Everyone calls me Becky. I have fl.My problem is I'm 83 and everyone says oh ,your going to die anyway, so what's the big deal? Well I'm still here and, I'm still human, I still have feelings. I take care of myself and I ask for very little from anyone, but when I do ,they act like why bother she's going to die anyway, even my Drs.It makes me mad because I'm still alive and I should be treated like everyone else ,with the respected and care giving to all.Not as if I'm disposable or no longer useful.It pisses me off.I needed to let people know older people still are alive, and we still have feeling's.Thinks for letting me get this off my chest.
