Tapping with my mother (seniors)

I love doing EFT with my Mom. She's 85 years old and generally open to tap with me, although she won't tap on her own. First, I introduced her to the idea that your health doesn't have to go downhill when you get older. Most of us hold this belief (writing on our walls). I said, "Mom, what if your health improves when you get older?" It gave her something to think about. The first time I tapped with her, she surprised us all by not having a vodka with her dinner that evening. This was very unusual. She said she just didn't feel like drinking. And didn't drink again for about a year. This was an unexpected side benefit. Now, mostly we tap every few months for her knee pain: Even though I have this knee pain, etc. Even though my knee likes to complain... Even though I'm not a complaining sort of person, so I let my knee do it for me... This made her laugh! After just a couple of rounds, her pain was gone, and it hasn't returned a month later.
