What is it like for Senior Citizens to make Aliyah? For my parents.
« on: January 31, 2010, 02:20:16 PM »
My Mom's interest peaked up when she saw the health care, not that I know much about Israeli health care... great way to get a Jewish doctor I suppose!  She is also very observant so living in the Biblical Homeland would be a true delight for my Mom.  My parents are 67 [Mom] and 73 [Dad].  I am sure they would like to remain active, they both have PHDs in Psychology, and have worked in both the academic and business worlds.

I am planning on making Aliyah myself, it would be great to take my parents with me.  How then could my brother remain in the US by himself!? HA! :dance:

"The difference between a Jewish liberal and a Jewish conservative is that when a Jewish liberal walks out of the Holocaust Museum, he feels, "This shows why we need to have more tolerance and multiculturalism." The Jewish conservative feels, "We should have killed a lot more Nazis, and sooner."" - Philip Klein

I'm sure Israel is a great place for elderly Jewish people to retire to.

If someone says something bad about you, say something nice about them. That way, both of you would be lying.
