[quote=Anonymous]Honestly? The people I've known that lived to be 90+ dealt with it by being in denial about their impending deaths. Rather than being depressed by the likelihood of dying sooner rather than later, they just didn't think about it and spent their time enjoying what was right in front of them (a nice meal, a nap, a favorite TV program, a new book, etc.). I have seen that denial so often--even from elderly parents and other relatives who were dying from a health condition--that I have come to assume that it's hardwired into humans. [/quote]
