Thank you for shouting out my recent Substack about peering into the future and wondering aloud, โ€œWhoโ€™s going to take care of me?โ€ As our generation looks after aging parents itโ€™s a natural query, especially for those of us without kiddos. I donโ€™t pretend to have all the answers but I am glad to have opened up a dialogue on the topic. Appreciate your leadership in this space and your support!

My pleasure! As I childless woman, I think about that all that time. Thanks for writing about it.

Love these recommendations. I just did my Substack on film recommendations, ones most people havenโ€™t seen but are too good to miss. Here are mine. https://open.substack.com/pub/bonniegarvin/p/under-your-radar?r=1lsqa7&utm_medium=ios

Love these. I just did my last Substack about films that likely not bypasses your radar. Check it out.

My pleasure, Kera! That was a cool thing! So many people contacted me to tell me about it. That was fun, too.

Sari, i think the NYT X-word puzzle with blue clue would make a great and unlike most, subtle T-shirt. It would be fun to redesign as well. If you donโ€™t have enough to do. โ€”IE

Have just discovered this site, and while I wouldโ€™ve previously cringed, if anyone had called me in an old stir in this Substack, it feels more like hipster. I am 82 years old and willing to do an interview anytime you want. My new book is called becoming a Badass: from fearful to fierce available in paperback Kindle or audiobook at AMAZON, Barnes & Noble or wherever you get your books it deals with a problem of aging of divorce of love of dysfunctional families of escaping to Paris of playing with a big boys like Michael Jordan and Whitney Houston and Francis Ford Coppola and a whole lot more. Itโ€™ll make you a happier, funnier more informed person.
