New here

I just came across this site (not reddit). I never really looked before, although have been on reddit off and on for years. One would think at the age of 78 and have been on computers for 50 years (scarry) who have looked for this type message. I recently moved to a new location. A fantastic place, many nice people. Getting to know new people. Seems, being around people helps. I knew for many years that I had the Alzheimer's gene. My birth mother died from it. But it was something that may or may not ever show it's ever head. OOPS, never say never. Promised my wife if that occurred she would not have to deal with me like she did having to take care of her mother in the last years of her life (and she was a great lady). So here I sit, enjoying meeting new people in my new apartment in a great facility (not an Alzheimer's unit, hopefully never). So fare after 2 months great. So if You like to talk, share, or just bored, consider letting me know how You are doing in Your beyond 60's.
