- Mary Maxwell's Invocation at the 2012 Aging in America Conference
Mary Maxwell reminds us once again that laughter is the best medicine with her invocation at the 2012 ASA Conference. Hear her commentary on marriage, technology, the unexpected stumbling blocks of old age, and Lady Gaga. Mary also discusses things she is thankful for, which range from caregivers and Home Instead Senior Care, to senior texting abbreviations such as DWI (Driving While Incontinent). Her invocation includes a retelling of the poignant poem "Blessed in Aging," meant to tell those who work with and care for seniors how much their efforts mean to aging adults everywhere. Do not miss this UA-cam sensation's kick off to the conference.
Be sure to keep up with Mary's ongoing comedy video blog on CaregiverStress.com:

I am a caregiver, it is the greatest honor of my life to care for my elders.
It's been a gift that I've been able to give my entire life.
Much love and gratitude to the elders who allow us to be part of their journey.
Love and Light.
We haveh just celebrated our 60th anniversary,.Bless her ,but bless her she is doing her best to make people feel more to appreciate the OLD PEOPLE WHO DESERVE RESPECT. WE HAVE LIVED A LIFE AND WE ARE NOT STUPID JUST BECAUSE WE ARE OLD. WE COULD TELL YOU SO MANY THINGS THAT YOU COULD LEARN ABOUT LIFE 👍
That's what my father told us...
- Do you think because we are old we are dumb now?
- No, I said, with all do respect (jokingly) you are not dumb now, that is not that issue you always were, but you were younger, quicker, in better shape all around.
- Oh, I get it, he said, I was a functional dumb guy like you are now and I am not anymore. So, that means I have to trust your judgement a bit more now?
- Yes I said, don't you think a young quicker dumb mind beats a slow dumb mind anytime?
- Well, he said, I don't know if that is your case or in all cases, but I'll trust you on this one for now.
- And we both laughed.
My poor late mother had her hair touched up before she went in for exploratory surgery. She passed two days after the procedure. I went to the same “hair lady”. She asked about my mother. She had to take a five minute break bf she finished my haircut. I will never forget that.
My moms hair lady called to say she missed her appointment.😢
How can she remain stoic while everyone was laughing uncontrollably is just beyond me! Well done!!!
Absolutely love her, she delivers every thing that I have found out about growing older. Getting old is NOT easy
It's the hardest thing ever! Who knew? I love this adorable woman. Her humor is the best!
😊 0:12 😊😊
So great!
Just discovered this gem. Love her. Having worked with the elderly for many years, I am now in my senior years and appreciate her humor!!! Amen
Hello ✋ Marti, how are you doing??😊
This is is just what we Caregivers need in this time of the pandemic.
Thank you Home Instead and Mary. RIP ❤🦋🌈🌹🙏
do you know when she died?? Thank you. mum and I are watching he still. she was amazing.
Oh so sad and yet so funny! RIP MARY
Never heard of this lady before! I'm so glad I took the time to watch her video! It was well worth the time & she is a treasure!
I love the fact that we are now called 'caregivers ' not 'care takers '. I was lucky enough to be caregiving to my parents for their last time here on earth and I know I will see them again. Wouldn't trade it for anything just to be there for them when they were always there for me. Miss you two! Travel on mom and dad!! 🚍 Damn they don't have a motor home emoji. Lol
What do they say? Funny cause it's true! May God bless her for years.
Brilliant as Ever Mary, thanks and Stay Safe and Protected Everyone in 2020, XX

I like MM's dead-pan expression on her face when she is reading these risible events and prayers! Everyone ages, it just kind of creeps up on you and shocks you when it happens! Don't worry, you'll get over it -- in time!
Blessed are you Mary from Karen Mary your friend.

Well arm, it was Christmas around Christmas. A couple of years my uncle had a haircut at a gate. Well I whoever was on my phone. Somehow, through trial-and-error I ended up switching, switching it around. Well, obviously he must. Not of known right away, but I was getting his text. SI wonder if he ever made it to that a gate in Charleston? Massachusetts hip hair appointment. I was in too busy stealing my photos. While, according to Catholic charities, he had a terrible accident in front of on Stafford street. And I heard he fell off the treadmill a couple times too😊
Did Leo McCurry also write produce or direct an affair to remember much like he did with going my Way and the bells of Saint Mary’s?
I want to put milk in the cupboard😊
