[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My recommendation to you is to enjoy it privately, but keep your good fortune to yourself and don’t ascribe it to any sort of higher moral value or worth that you’ve been granted by the universe.

I come from a crappy genetic stock that has somehow managed to reproduce just enough to propagate rapid-aging genes. I went gray in my early 20s, am pale with freckles and wrinkle easily, have had arthritis and a thyroid problem since my late 20s, and am hoping that I can escape macular degeneration in spite of what genetic testing suggests.

I don’t know if it would be harder to go from not aging to handling all of this at once. I do know that aging is better than being dead, so I’m happy to look and feel a bit busted but to be alive![/quote]

Aww good luck with your macular degeneration. We have that in our family and I'm taking the vitamins. Have taken my mother to the eye surgery many a time. They caught it, but not early enough. She's stabilized but probably not going to improve. The medicine has come a long way. Good for us for tackling it now![/quote]
