[quote=Anonymous]My mom lived to 98. I always felt like she willed herself to live a long time. Not sure it's possible but if it is, she did. The opposite of someone who gives up. She had a decent quality of life as her mind was very sharp and she was a happy person, but she was almost totally blind from macular degeneration (which meant she couldn't see her food to put it on a fork, etc., among other things) and had mobility problems. I felt more relief when she died than I did grief. I loved her and appreciated her, but during the last year or two, it was getting hard. It's just a lot, no matter what your involvement is or how much care you provide. There is so much involved. [/quote]
