[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My MIL is 90, been in hospital for 2 weeks, will need full time care. She herself said she wants to end her life. My dad is 90 and generally healthy, but he's starting to lose his vision and balance. My mom is 84 and has alzheimers and all sorts of health issues. Can't really walk well. Being that old really does suck. I too hope to die before 90.[/quote] One of my grandmothers said goodbye to everyone in her early 90s and then stopped taking her medication. She was sharp as a tack still and in relatively good health. But she couldn’t hear well, couldn’t taste much, couldn’t get around well. She said most of her friends were dead and it was too hard to talk with the ones who were left because of hearing loss and their cognitive decline. She was done. I think about that sometimes that she was very brave. [/quote]
