Speaking is more than just communication! (Improving English. Day 3)
I'm taking care to of an elderly lady who broke her hip, and doesn't yet have enough sense strength to keep by take care of herself because of the desorientation lack of balance. She is amazely has been recovering amazingly dues to her good way way of life? and happiness, but she still doesn't still walk down the stairs to reach the street.Today the husband of her daughter her daughter's husband came and lifted her down her, hence so she could be sat sit with the neighbours at by the road. -- Since I'm writing, I realize that can sound a bit weird for any person who are is not familiar with the Spanish rural culture, but every day the neightboorsneighbors meet together in the road within little groups to talk and spend time together, avoiding the heat at the shadowy and windy street in front their homes.-- It is the first time that we can sit with the others in the path. Our village is a elderedly village, so the most of the neightboursneighbors are more than 80, and all of them have several health issues, but, not so much as many as town people with similar ages and characteristics. The main difference between people from the city and rural people is exactly this, they spend a lot of time speaking with old friends every single day. I think speaking reinforces the social side of the human beenbeing, and strongsstrengthens the ties with the others, growing the self confidence and the feeling of belonging: Speaking is communication, of course, but also health!

"take care of" is the correct phrase
"elderly" is the adj. form of "elder"
"sense" (as a noun) means something like "ability to understand"
Ran out of characters to explain :(

In the first sentence it is important to add the pronoun when you are talking about something someone possesses or has like, "disorientation" If you don't put the pronoun, in this case "she" before the reader will ask, "who's disorientation?"
In English the adjective comes after the subject not before
for example:
Recovering amazingly. (Amazingly is the adjective to "She recovering")
Also remember that you use "an" when the next word in the sentence starts with a vowel like: Elderly, you'd say: An elderly not A elderly.
Some words that are commonly used in English is "So, then" instead of "Hence" this word is used more in literature not everyday conversation.
Overall this was good, there was just a couple of grammar mistakes.
