The actress added that the real questions shouldn’t be about how she is aging or how her skin is adhering to her bones but about how she is putting one foot in front of the other despite her knees hurting and the wear and tear her body has had to endure.
To Sally, the hardest part about aging is figuring out how to stay healthy against all the things that come at her in her older years.
