[quote=Anonymous]My mom is 75 and lives in a 3 level TH. She’s in terrific shape. No issues with stairs. She bought the house when she was 50. My in laws bought a house in their late 50s. They are now both 75. It’s a ranch. My MIL can barely handle any sort of exertion. It’s like she been waiting to deteriorate and so now she is. She doesn’t do any other exercise either and sometimes I wonder if stairs would have helped keep them in better physical shape. Maybe not. But some of this boils down to mind set. My mom is prepared to age in place a help, or move as needed. My in-laws will resist help and cling to their one level house past the point it makes sense. [/quote]
