[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't mean for this question to be rude, and I apologize if it makes anyone uncomfortable. But this is something, I've always wondered about, but obviously IRL can't ask an older person about. But I've always wondered. What is it like to be older and know that you really don't have that much more time left to live? How do people deal with that emotionally and keep from being depressed? I realize there probably aren't too many 70+ people on DCUM to answer this question, but even for people in their 50's, realistically most of them are aware that they probably don't have more than 30 years left, and that's really not that much time. I hate to be a Debbie Downer, but honestly, how do people deal with that?[/quote] Don't you have parents or grandparents to ask that question? Even if you are in your 20s now, you might not have that many years, months or even days left. [/quote]
