“I feel trapped working, but I can’t stop working,” Lydia says, sitting up to cuddle her basset hound, Brigette. Her husband, Bill, gives her a kiss but lets her be. The 90-year-old would like to get a job to help Lydia pay the bills, but because of health problems, there’s little he can do.

“I feel so guilty that I can’t work,” Bill says.

“You can’t work because of your age and your health issues,” Lydia snaps back. “There’s no sense feeling guilty about it.”
