A Well-Lived Gladys

For Dr. Gladys McGarey 1919 - 2024

Two months short
of a hundred and five
she too the upward dive

You can read about her in her books
and some good hints on living yours

At an Austin church we got to touch
a shawl Gandhi gave her doctor parents 
when they ministered on Himalayan slopes

Never washed you can still grok Gandhi on it

Her son Bob has a Human Potential Center 
where we had a small group dinner later
and she and me washing and drying
shoulder to shoulder at the small sink after

The ordinary dancing with the extraordinary

Celebrating the life of Dr Gladys McGarey, Mother of holistic medicine and best-selling author of The Well-Lived Life: A 103-Year-Old Doctor’s Six Secrets to Health and Happiness at Every Age, and Living Medicine
