Irma Greene Phillips, 51, Trinidad and Tobago

Personal feelings: Gee, I’m scared as hell. I have my big brother. I take care of him. He has no children. He’s almost 80 and when I’m out he’s left alone. I try to do my best, but I just don’t feel comfortable about him being alone. I think about me, and that when I am that age I might be alone in a room too. It scares me.
Secrets to aging well: Do things you’ve always wanted to do. Go on a cruise. Go to some of the big shows. Enjoy yourself. Religion is a must. You have to believe. What else do you have?
