** In Collaboration** We all age, and one of the most challenging things to deal with as we get older is that our parents do as well.

As Dr.ofwhat is over three years old now, sometimes it can be hard to think of new content for the blog. I often go a week or two without any good ideas- luckily I usually scheduled posts in advance!
