The Last Kiss


As people age, they become less capable of taking care of themselves. As time passes, they cannot dress themselves, feed themselves, keep house, or do the personal things that healthy people do. When that time comes........they usually end up in a nursing home. The couple in the photo have been married 70 years. They had lived in the same nursing home for three years. Now, one of them is waiting to be taken to a "special needs" care home. This will split them up for the first time in their lives. They share one last kiss before this sad event takes place.
