"Health brings a freedom very few realise, until they no longer have it."
Take it from an old guy, pay attention to this. I've buried both inlaws and my father since late January this year. When you lose your health, you also lose the little things in life from a very real perspective. You can't hang with your friends any more. Your free time evaporates because of all of the doctor visits. You may need help getting there. Also, the idea of spontaneous activity becomes a memory, because you have to plan yours around medication and appointments. And, of course, that affects the plans of those who love you (although they will deny it).
