A Letter from Our Editor
Sharon Sultan Cutler
Dear www.MatureReaders.org:
I love reading AARP’s magazine, appropriately named AARP Magazine. The publisher does get right to the point! AARP’s feature articles and news stories usually give a positive, pro-active spin on subjects which create daily worry and nightly insomnia for millions of us. I know that you know the topics intimately affecting millions of us today: finances, jobs, retirement, health, illness, and now swine flu (aka H1N1 flu)
Some of the headlines in recent issues that caught my eye and made me want to read further are:

Seniors Beyond Age Eighty May Need Extra TLC
Be Able to Enter the Cyber-world for Fun and Profit
By Luise Volta
Most of the present generation of seniors past the age of approximately 80 may not have had computers introduced into their work-lives. When that is the case, it may feel daunting to them to try to stretch into a new technology without any real foundation. Fear of failure can be a strong deterrent in attempting to learn something new plus having to commit strange data to a less and less reliable memory could put them off. Very few are initially comfortable alone in cyber-land.
Seniors who haven't experienced email often think that landline telephones and an occasional letter are good enough because they always have been. Most could profit from learning more about the beauty of instant delivery sans interruption. Family members and friends who have the patience can often present a whole new world to senior-seniors just by a short demonstration of what's available and how it works.

Senior Support - Family Touching Family
By Wade Robins
One of the biggest fears confronting those who are approaching old age is the loss of friends and loved ones who have been with them throughout their lives. Losing someone close is difficult at any time, but when one is struggling with the infirmities which aging brings, any loss of support is magnified. Senior support is essential to help the elderly enjoy their lives.
Senior support is more than a matter of having senior housing and assistance. Elderly people will not thrive without the emotional connectedness that only family and friends can provide. Anyone who is feeling helpless and vulnerable longs for a friendly hand extended in support, and knowing that someone you love and trust is ready with financial or emotional support can make the difference between a peaceful old age and a terrifying one. Senior support does not have to be an overwhelming effort.
