I am 85, and live by myself in a 2 bedroom house, since my husband died last year.
I don't drive, but get around on the buses -- although they don't come very often. I do all of my
own cooking and housework. My son gets the heavy shopping for me when he comes to visit
once a month. I am as fit as a fiddle, and have never been admitted to hospital in my life.
I have had one fall at home, but I don't feel I need any gadgets or equipment to help
me -- I just need to be a little bit more careful. I really don't want my house to be
taken over by technology, and ugly bits of equipment.
