Last week, I had a very frightening experience. My husband awoke at seven in the morning, and his whole body was shaking so badly that I had to hold on to him so that he wouldn’t fall off of the bed. He had a raging fever, and so I called 911. The Paramedics examined him and took him to the hospital where he was admitted. After a few hours, my husband was in his room and went to the bathroom. As he was washing his hands he looked into the mirror and said me: “Where did I get those bags under my eyes?” I looked at him with a smile and replied: “You don’t have your glasses on right now, but that’s the way you’ve looked without them for years.” He was horrified!! “I can’t believe I look like this without my glasses,” he stated . I began to laugh and said: “Welcome to the world of Senior Citizens Aging. I’ve been using lotions and creams for years to ward off the ‘bags’ of old age. Now it‘s your turn.” He was only in the hospital for few days, but since his return to home, he has read every one of my Women’s Magazines on wrinkles, bags and skin aging. I dread seeing the credit card bill at the end of the month - since he has ordered every imaginable cream, lotion and promise of “no wrinkles” on the printed page. Oh well, maybe he’ll find the “real fountain of youth” that will make me look younger too!

Good for him...I plan on fighting those bags as well. I have my own stash of creams and they do work..
Hope your husband is on the mend..
