What's Your Aging IQ?

Harriet is 68. She is always on the go—busy doing things around her house and managing the family finances. Lately she has been bothered more and more by urinary incontinence. Sometimes, she can't make it to the bathroom in time. Then last month, while hurrying to the bathroom, she slipped on a throw rug in the hall, fell, and broke her hip. She spent almost a week in the hospital and then several weeks recovering in a care facility getting therapy. Her husband had trouble at home finding what he needed to pay the bills.
