註釋How old is old? It depends upon who you ask. How does it feel to be 80 and sick? In this book, Dr. Lemon asks his patients and listens to them and lets us in on their collective wisdom. John, an Iowa farmer, struggles his way through the health-care system, emerging as a man with a new heart, both in fact and in spirit. Ruby tells us, "I am too busy to get old; you gotta laugh.” Ione inspires us. She is 92, blind and crippled. She still dances around her walker. The people, their stories and their faith warm our hearts and make us less afraid as we progress on the journey we all must travel.
