[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Having had grandparents on opposite sides of the spectrum - one who is pretty cool and the other who is frail, a lot of it is outlook. My cool grandmother knows she’s aging, is comfortable with acknowledging what she can and can’t do, and stays active by hanging out with friends. My other grandmother is the opposite - negative about everything. I also think nice clothes helps![/quote] My mom and MIL are two ends of the spectrum like this. Mom is elderly and frail and MIL is hip, reads, uses her phone with ease, dresses in nice and contemporary clothes. I have the same questions PP. In my mind, mom has always been negative and introverted, and never very social. My MIL is very social, upbeat, and engaged in the community. My mom’s sister however was like my MIL, and she is frail and has Alzheimer’s. These women were all born within 14 months of each other. I pray I end up like my MIL. [/quote]
