Helen-Anne Keith

Helen-Anne Keith–It was through the Senior Center that I made friends. I have a terrible habit of coughing, and people think I’m dying, and I had a coughing spell. Josefina wasin class with me. She was the only one who came up to me and tried to help.That’s how we got to know each other. Josefina cannot speak English, andI cannot speak Spanish, but somehow we connected. We still are very close.Now we’re doing what they call chair yoga. What keeps me going, upbeat? I don’t want to die. I know the human body is designed to only get to 120 at the most. I have 18 more years!
