Pronunciation: un kynd ree wynd

Sentence: James had a daydream his whole life that he would never get old. As each decade past though, people he thought of as old in his younger days were now his peers or younger. Instead of saying "Wow, she's at least 50 and ancient." He would now say, "Hey, she's only 50/60/70/80 or 90 and looks great!" He knew he was getting old when he started going to more funerals than weddings and he read the obits every day in the paper to make sure he was not listed there. Although his mind was still young and foolish, his body started to betray him. Going to his doctor every week was now a social activity, one that he would use in conversations with, well, anybody ("You should see the size of my prostrate!) This once lively and exhuberant man was now experiencing the unkindrewind syndrome. Yep, his fountain of youth was drying up...he had taken a stroll through the Disenchanted Forest never to return...he wouldn't buy green bananas, in case they couldn't ripen in time! His latter years would be spent regressing mentally and physically until, with no family or friends around, he'd be left to the mercy of a temporary foreign worker nurses' aide who did not speak English. A nice enough lady who would cheerfully spoonfeed him with a clean bib at each meal, wipe his nose (and other parts), teach him to try and speak again and change his diapers. He thought she was his Mom...

Etymology: Unkind(lacking kindness;lacking or showing kindness or compassion or mercy ;circumstances that cause suffering) & Rewind (to go backwards;to reverse)& play upon "Please be kind and rewind" stickers that video shops placed on VHS tapes.

Sentence: Renatalization was a subfield of Geriatrics and still in the experimental stages. Adolfia Ghering, MD, was among its pioneers. The hopes and dreams of mankind were still a fertile (and sometimes foolish, Adolfia thought) field full of promise. Finding just the right patients took...well, patience. But, afterall, the market was ripe with eager Baby Boomers. Sitting before her now was a dear little man who looked so much like Albert Einstein. Soon she would know if little Albert had been a cute and cuddly baby. Now that the technique had been approved for trial, Adolfia just needed this guy to sign on the dotted line while there was still time to renatalize him. Now if she could just get the pen to stay in his trembling hand...

Sentence: Fred had worked his whole life, right up until his 86th birthday when the symptoms began. Repubescophobia had gripped him at 55 and refused to let go. His family had called it for what it was, just getting old, but Fred had stoically worked long and hard to stave off the inevitable. Now, he looked hopefully up at the doctor for an answer, but he quickly saw, with what remained of his vision, that her face said it all. He was going to repubesce, and there was nothing he could do. His repubescence was upon him, and there was no miracle drug on the planet that could stop repuberty. Fred was doomed, so he resigned himself to his fate and asked the pretty young doctor for a lollipop.
