Wow - I thought that I'd made a record with my mother turning 104 next month. Your mother takes the prize. I hope she's well. My mother sees a geriatric specialist, but I must tell you he's nice and we like him, but I could hardly see the difference between him and the walk in clinic we used after Mother's doctor died. Perhaps a an integrative medical practice would serve better - we are about to investigate one here in Atlanta for Mother's care. Her previous doctor (deceased) practiced integrative medicine including acupuncture. He was great.
At her age, is she suffering from any ailments? disease(s)? Has taking care of her become burdensome? In what way(s)? In case she needs medical attention and care, geriatricians, in particular hardened ones with a proven track record, are the ones to address. One thing is sure, your mother is one of those few people one can learn much from, especially with regard to experience in life, and lived through, or witnessed unbiased historical evidence. We will all benefit by what she still has to say. Hugs to you both.
I hope you and she have wrote a book of time past the sweet the bad the moments that mean nothing to any one but you and her we can't live forever in this body but with god we will so its savor this life and keep something more then money and property when she is in his hand k3ep her love in her word till you too are again together please keep her as you have supported body and soul god bless her and you
A geriatric physician, also called a geriatrician, is a medical doctor who specializes in the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of disease and disability in older adults. Geriatric physicians are primary care doctors who are specially trained in the aging process.
Wow, your Mother is 107... imagine all the wonderful new inventions she witnessed in her life time.
