hi can not remember what it was called as did not watch from the begining a program about celebritys who are in there 70 and 80s who have health problems and the improvement they made when no one was running around after them and helping where help was not needed.
then they fetched carers in and half reverted back to letting others do every thing from putting socks on and fetch and carry for them they had made so much progress then just reverted back. it does show that you need to keep doing as much as you can it is a matter of use it or loose it val

    Hi Val

    I didn't see the programme, but you are right in saying it is a matter of use it or loose it I think we are all probably more capable than we think, and we can surprise ourselves sometimes as to what we can achieve with determination and a positive attitude.
