Speaker: Susan Cox, Retired RN

Please introduce yourself, and share why you choose to support NAMI.

Susan Cox: I'm Susan Cox and I'm 82 years old and I live in a personal care home at Presbyterian Senior Care. And I love doing crossword puzzles, so I spend most of my time in my room doing crossword puzzles online. And you can choose how many puzzle pieces you want, and I usually choose 300, and I can get it done in several hours, um, if I stay at it. I can usually do it in an hour and a half, but I'm interrupted several times by having to eat and. Then I go play bingo and I have a set of friends I play rummy cube with, so that's a lot of fun. And uh I'm not sure it's fun for my friends because I have. 12 days in a row, 3 times, we usually play 3 games. And that's what I do for a recreation in the summer. I don't go outside because I take medication. That would make me sunburn so I limit my time indoors.
