Something to think about when you are old..

I JUST TURNED 70 ON SEPTEMBER 23RD..I PUT AN UPDATED PICTURE OF ME AS MY PROFILE PICTURE..IT WAS TAKEN AT MY BIRTHDAY PARTY..SURE DO NOT FEEL 70, BUT AGE DOES NOT LIE..SOMEONE SENT ME THIS E-MAIL I AM NOW POSTING HERE..SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT..BUT, I HAVE MANY, MANY YEARS TO GO, BEFORE I GET THAT OLD TO EVEN CONSIDER SOMETHING LIKE THIS..........

 

Something to think about- When we reach that old golden age... NO NURSING HOME FOR US ...This is what we are going to do...


We are checking into the Holiday Inn! With the average cost for a nursing home care costing $188.00 per day, there is a better way when we get old & feeble.We have already checked on reservations at the Holiday Inn. For a combined long term stay discount and senior discount, it's $49.23 per night. That leaves $138.77 a day for:Breakfast, lunch, and dinner in any restaurant we want, or room service, laundry, gratuities, and special TV movies. Plus, they provide a swimming pool, a workout room, a lounge, and washer-dryer, etc. Most have free toothpaste and razors, and all have free shampoo and soap. $5 worth of tips a day will have the entire staff scrambling to help you. They treat you like a customer, not a patient.There is a city bus stop out front, and seniors ride free. The handicap bus will also pick you up (if you fake a decent limp). To meet other nice people, call a church bus on Sundays. For a change of scenery, take the airport shuttle bus and eat at one of the nice restaurants there. While you're at the airport, fly somewhere. Otherwise, the cash keeps building up. It takes months to get into decent nursing homes. Holiday Inn will take your reservation today. And you are not stuck in one place forever, you can move from Inn to Inn, or even from city to city.  Want to see Hawaii ? They have a Holiday Inn there too. TV broken? Light bulbs need changing? Need a mattress replaced? No problem. They fix everything, and apologize for the inconvenience. The Inn has a night security person and daily room service. The maid checks to see if you are ok. If not, they will call the undertaker or an ambulance. If you fall and break a hip, Medicare will pay for the hip, and Holiday Inn will upgrade you to a suite for the rest of your life. And no worries about visits from family. They will always be glad to find you, and probably check in for a few days mini-vacation. The grand kids can use the pool. What more can you ask for? So, when we reach that golden age,We'll face it with a grin.Just forward all our email to: HOLIDAY INN
