My parents in law, Betty (92) and Norm (95) have been together for 71 years. They have both had serious surgery over the past 10 years but are resilient and enjoy their lives in their own home on the South Coast of NSW Australia. Betty goes to craft twice each week and knits beautiful things. Norm still passes his driving licence test each year. They watch TV together and go for walks near their home.
