whoever coind the phrase "golden agers" shd be punchd in the puss. I believe we do experience "golden years" but usually we're out of them before we even realize they were golden. & all that's left is the terrible tin of the end.
i liked to pick at gloria a cranky red head at my old store that often complained about her age. like suggesting that she start eating more fried foods for the oil (the day she came to work with a fresh dye job) cuz you're hair is getting rusty. but she turned the tables on me one day. i was tired after several very long days and feeling sore all over and whined, "getting old sucks". gloria loudly replied, as she walked by, "honey, it sure beats the alternative." :)

The end isn't usually pretty. I hope things go as well as possible for your father.
And unfortunately, the tin is pitted and rusty.
