Rich, you say? Yes!

Connections are
key to disrupt aging

RAND readers are rich in a very important
way; we're blessed with grandchildren.
They are our legacy - some part of us is
reflected in them, and that part will go on into
the future. How cool is that?
It's our tangible personal connection to
the future, and why we demand society be as
healthy and safe as possible for those grandkids,
with plenty of opportunities for them to thrive.
These themes, and what we can do to make a
difference, are found in this issue and will always
be part of GRAND.
I am so excited by our cover feature! Wait
until you get to know the fascinating and inspiring Pat Mitchell. Hers is a story all women (and
men) should hear.
Our regular contributing experts have outdone themselves: Debby Carroll's column on
who will run the world, recipes for healthy
smoothies your g-kids will love, Dr. Coleman on
grandparent alienation, Cheryl Harbour helps us
unravel the mysteries of new grandbabies, and
so much more.
So, grab a beverage, put your feet up and
explore the GRAND life! When you're done, let
me know what you think right here.

Penelope (AKA Poppy)

With my best to you and your family,

Think vertical, says Kate Jerome. Make connections between generations-it's the best kind of
problem solving: mutually beneficial, easy and
not costly to do. By harnessing the interpersonal
engine that intergenerational connection empowers, young people gain wisdom and emotional
support and older people gain a feeling of relevance and purpose, and both thrive.
