3. Al needs to take his health more seriously

I love your posts, MissMillie, and hope to read more from you!

Your SO is older, as am I. Although I’m not overweight and don’t have diabetes (yet!), in my late 60s, I have plenty of health concerns. Colonoscopies, blood chemistry, dermatological concerns, blood pressure, cholesterol and more are concerns I face every day. My daily medications include 3 prescriptions and half a dozen supplements.

Please encourage Al to care more about his health and eating habits. Fruits are better than pie or donuts. They taste better, too! I’ve started taking a half hour health walk every day. It’s helped my morning routines and my heart. It’s also not that hard.

While these steps take a little discipline, I feel a little better and my mind is at ease that I’m trying to stay healthy. Bonus: My wife likes how I look!

Great good luck to you both!
