Day to Day happenings in my life

Is the best yet to come?

My husband’s Mother died a year ago aged 97, and I was thinking of all the inventions she saw throughout her life. She went along happily keeping up with all the new technologies, loving her computer and mobile phone, learned to text message and email etc. Imagine the inventions there have been since she was born nearly a hundred years ago. Yet when I think of it, even since 1944 when I was born the world is completely different and yet it happens so incrementally we hardly notice, it creeps up on us, we accept it. Yes we’re amazed when new medicines are invented or a vaccine to prevent deadly illnesses becomes available and then we view it as a right not a privilege.
Every day it seems new inroads are made into cures or treatments. People are living longer, the medical profession are keeping us alive longer, not necessarily for the better sometimes.
The inventions I see happening within the next ten years are mostly medically related. Dementia is on everyone’s radar and will be the next to be cured I think. Cancer is no longer a death sentence and early diagnosis is the key.
I read the other day I could clone my dog! Now that IS something.
