Can Do, Will Do

Our physical skills and abilities erode with time and use. That clock never stops ticking and for some people it is a fast moving clock at that. While aging is enough in most cases, debilitating disease often shows conveniently up and takes charge. One of the lessons I have learned is that you can be robbed of your physical gifts but never of your attitude unless you allow it. I have been impressed over and over again by the can do, will do attitude of people who have suffered greatly at the hands of disease and aging and yet never say die. As a parent looks on the gift of children in their lives, a caregiver can look on the gift of attitude in the same way. We walk away a little proud of the actions and the attitudes. Let's make sure these Heroes get the help and dignity they deserve.
