Special Gifts For The Elderly
By Jan Hayner
Sometimes it isn't presents like clothes, home furnishings or appliances that mean the most to the elderly.

At this time of their lives they are trying to get rid of those kinds of things. What is most important for them now are the gifts to help them live life to the fullest and be able to save money too.

They have spent all of your lives raising children, working to feed everybody, buy a home, buy clothes to dress everyone, made all of their own financial decisions and have done a really good job of it.

Now, they find that in the twilight of their lives, that they are becoming forgetful, insecure thinking is taking over their minds and that there are things that they can't do as well as they used to.

They have found that they no longer can live alone, people feel that they can't be trusted to use the stove and someone else has to pay your bills for you.

This is very demeaning for anyone to have to go through. Although for a lot of our Elderly and Senior Citizens there are ways of making it a lot easier on the person to be able to cope with this situation. Your gift to them can be to return the security and independence that they deserve to have in some very easy and unique ways.

Here are a few suggestions that may help:

EXIT COOKING

Let's say that the person isn't able to make a large meal for themselves, or that they couldn't possibly eat as much as they would cook, but that they need a well-balanced meal.

How about giving them a gift certificate so they can go out to eat or set something up with a local restaurant so they can go in to eat and the bill will get paid once or twice a month. They get to go out to eat, have a balanced meal and take the leftovers home and heat in the microwave to eat when ever they choose.
OR another alternative would be to set up meals on wheels for them a few times a week or to go to a Senior Center for a meal.

You can check this out with your local Office on Aging. Don't they deserve to have someone else cook for them after all of the years that they have been cooking, besides that; they will only need to have deli meat, bread, milk and snacks in the house for in-between. This will save them a lot of money and we all know that the elderly are 100% for saving money on a fixed income.

Transportation for the person to the meal site can normally be set up through the meal site or the Office on Aging.

I CAN'T DRIVE

The thought of depending on other people to take you everyplace that you want to go is one of the reasons the elderly continue to want to drive. Now, if they know that they can get from point A to point B all by themselves and it isn't going to be expensive and they can do this all on their own, they don't mind not driving, a matter of fact, most of them look forward to the idea.

Get them a monthly bus pass, teach them how to set up transportation using the Seniors Bus or Handicap
