[quote=Anonymous]Let him be optimistic. My dad is 83 and has been planning for the end since my mom died. It makes me sad. Yet he does do some funny things like looking at new cars while talking about his impending death. I would love to have him until 97 but only if he has a good quality of life. He’s in amazing shape and mentally sharp which is a good sign. I do care for another family member with no children who has far greater needs and I often think caring for her will define most of my remaining healthy years. Sometimes that feels overwhelming. Yet, this is what family is about. I hope my kids won’t see me as a burden one day. [/quote]
