Basically exactly what the top says. I want something that screams COMING OF AGE except instead of a teen movie like most coming of age stories, I want an image that showcases coming into 84-year-old-ness

Not an artist but I have an idea!

An image of an old man being given a book by a doctor. The title of the book is clearly visible and reads, "Everything Hurts: A Guide to Aging" and the doctor is saying, "You can skip to chapter 10."

Above the scene is a hospital sign that says "Hospice ➡️" and there's a woman in a wheelchair being pushed in that direction.

There's family members standing around talking about the old man like he's not right there in front of them.

On the wall in the background is a sign describing the, "Silver Alert" system and how to notify the authorities if Grandpa goes missing.

This is sort of a combo of the first and third idea with the doctor explaining the pains of ageing to the old man's family members instead.
