David, I am 62 years old and someday will have to be taken care of as well. I'm alot closer to that reality than you are.
The aging process. It's a humbling experience. I am learning a lot of my life lessons now that I am older and suffering from my aches and pains and debilitating old bones.
If I were to always be in great health, I would not appreciate what I had when I was younger.
The pain your friend went through. It was his life plan. I know, it's so hard to sit back and watch helpless to do anything for him. But it taught you a very good lesson. To appreciate what you have while you are young. He would have wanted you to know that.
