I decided to do my research paper on problems with getting older. For my
first research paper I am analyzing the causes of the problems
associated with getting older . My grandpa has found out that he has
diabetes. As he is
getting older he got more and more problems. One day he had to go to the
hospital because of his violent coughing and bad headaches. The nurses
at the hospital checked him and found at that he had a major foot
infection. The nurses cut out his foot infection and he was forced to
stay in elderly homes. He always had trouble walking and he was never
the same. Now, grandpa has to be helped to do many things and he loses
much of the independence of being able to do everyday things he use to
do. Problems with the elderly are everywhere and they are unavoidable.
These problems are important because they could be prevented and
everybody grows old sooner or later. Some cause of these problems are
poor health and not enough exercise. Many people
don't understand that they need exercise as they get older. Many people don't get exercise
everyday and they don't try to eat healthier. Many side effects are
associated with problems getting older. Many of these effects are
serious and can be prevented if the victims take action.
