she is 80 and fears mental decline.

She lives for dancing...
She's had some severe health issues that stopped her from dancing for a year..but she had surgery in December and thankfully seems on the mend.

I hope to see her dancing soon. And knowing that dancing is the activity which apparently is the most likely to ward off dementia is a wonderful bonus and should also ease her concerns about being a burden.
