We talk with John Leland about his book, "Happiness is a Choice You Make-Lessons from a year among the Oldest Old".  

Leland, shared some of his experiences with us in writing this book which started as an assignment for the newspaper.  In his own words, " In 2015, I followed six people over age 85 for a year. I expected a deep dive into the hardships of old age. Instead, they taught me lessons that changed my life: lessons in resilience, joy, purpose, gratitude and acceptance."
