With spirit and insight these men and women show us it is possible to integrate all of the past--our failures as well as successes. They show us how to adapt to the changes taking place in our bodies, in our relationships, and in the circumstances of our lives. As they acknowledge the challenges of aging--loneliness, physical limitations, and the reality of death--they give us encouragement to face our fears. Letting go of the past, settling into life as it is, they help us embrace who we have become. Hosted by Julie Harris and Richard Kiley, Grow Old along with Me teaches us just how creative this journey through old age can be--as we are inspired to make that critical shift from life-as-a-burden to life-as-a-joy.
