[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]And based on many other posts on this board about inlaws and parents and grandparents there are actually many posters who know people over 60 who are still independent, driving, mobile, continent, and able to engage in social and recreational activities and who don’t require a caregiver to manage basic activities of daily living. [/quote] NP. This is the vast majority of people I know (in my 50+ years of life). I’ve also known younger people who need caregivers due to unforeseen things; life is unpredictable. The biggest issue with a 19 year age gap is a difference in life stages. And even cultural references; I really appreciate that my DH came of age in the 80s like I did - same music, films, traditions, events, etc[/quote] Agree. The thing, too, is when he’s in his 80s, when his health may worsen, she’ll only be in her 60s. She will miss out on some good years.[/quote]
