While America turned 250 this weekend, Edwin Hammond turned 104. 🇺🇸

Born on the Fourth of July in 1922, Edwin enlisted at 17 and served in Germany during WWII. This Saturday, he celebrated his birthday right alongside the country he defended.

His secret to a long life? “Stop smoking, keep up exercise…”

Here’s what Edwin’s story reminds me of every time: we’re living longer than any generation before us. And that’s a blessing — but it’s also something we have to plan for.

Living to 104 means your money, your care, and your independence need to last to 104 too. Most families don’t think about long-term care until they’re in the middle of it. The families who plan ahead? They get to focus on birthdays instead of bills.

If you’ve got an Edwin in your family or hope to be one someday, let’s talk about protecting those extra years. It’s one of the kindest things you can do for the people who love you.

Plan Today. Protect Tomorrow. 🎆

Beth is a speech therapist at VMRC in Harrisonburg. She works mostly with stroke survivors — people who've lost the ability to communicate the things that matter most to them.

One of her patients had arrived from the hospital after a stroke and could barely express herself. Beth showed up session after session, building trust slowly. Then one day, with the family in the room, the conversation turned to hymns.

They started singing Amazing Grace. The resident sang the chorus right along with them.

That moment didn't happen because of luck. It happened because someone was there — trained, present, and paid to be. That's what quality long-term care looks like. And it's exactly what's at risk when families don't have a plan to pay for it.

If you'd like to talk about what a plan could look like for you or someone you love, call now! 540-443-9223

At VMRC, our speech therapy team helps older adults rediscover their voice, their independence, and the moments that matter most.

Read a beautiful story this morning about a 77-year-old Virginia woman named Clara who has been on dialysis for 12 years — and still dresses up in her pink outfit and bracelets for every single appointment.

She's able to stay in her own home — the house she bought to do just that — because she has a care team in place. A caregiver who helps her cook, get dressed, and make it to appointments. A nurse who checks in regularly. A real plan.

"Does your family have that kind of plan?"

That's the question I ask every client. Most people want to stay home as long as possible. But wanting it and planning for it are two different things. I'd love to talk. 📞 540-443-9223

Decked out in a matching pink shirt and hat with layers of bracelets and necklaces, Clara Hatcher’s dialysis appointment doubles as a fashion event. She spends three and a half hours, three mornings a week, receiving the treatment, so the 77-year-old likes to dress up for the occasion. Having been...
