[quote=Anonymous]When I was a kid we had a neighbor who would babysit us after school. She was in her 80s and had 7 kids and several adult grandchildren. She lived to see 4 or 5 of her great-grandchildren. She had kids young and they had kids reasonably young too. And she was a blast. I don’t know if she could have hosted a 20-person Thanksgiving dinner, but she could and did babysit my sister and me 5 days a week (mostly watching us do our homework, but still) and was fully mentally and physically healthy. She died at 87, but she had a steep decline over 3ish weeks and ended up in the hospital, where she passed. Until then she was in remarkable shape.[/quote]
