I got mine this year and I am 38 also. I took the paper into my dr asking for the renewal of my temp but he just filled it out for the perm one. I cried all the way home. I don't use it all the time but when I need it I need it. Also, I live near Sun City (55 and over city). Many times the spots are already all taken when I go to use it. But it is nice to have on those bad days. Hang in there.
